Hi Folks,

According to page 1-11 of the Service Manual, the Outer Diameter of the Piston of the Rear Brake Master Cylinder for the 5th Gen. VFR800 is 17.417 - 17.444 mm (0.6857 - 0.6868 inches).

According to the following page, the Outer Diameter of the Piston of the Rear Brake Master Cylinder for the CBR600F4i is 13.957 - 13.984 mm (0.5495 - 0.5506 inches).

Which is better, and why, for pushing the 3 pistons of the VFR calipers on a De-linked Brake System?

Thanks!

Nearly all the Honda sporty bikes of that era used the same size master. That’s the one you need, as mentioned in the other thread you commented in.
