 Bike Fitment-

The Racetorx thumb brake is a versatile solution for all kinds of motorcycles, including road bikes, race bikes, adventure bikes, and motocross bikes. Our thumb brake is fully adjustable, providing a wide range of adjustment possibilities. However, it is important to note that depending on the bike's fairings, tanks or frames, there may be some slight obstructions. If your motorcycle has handlebars, fitting clearance is much easier than on those with OEM clip-ons. Owners of Ducati motorcycles should note that fitting the thumb brake to the Ducati V4 Panigale & Aprilia V4 can be tricky due to clearance issues. This applies to any thumb brake, and limiting steering on the yokes is necessary. The Ducati V2 Panigale provides more clearance, but the frame is still obstructed at full lock. Lastly, we are excited to announce that the latest BSB Thumb Paddles are now available. This is the result of our collaboration with the team's Moto Rapido & FS3.

This kit supplied will mount in conjunction to your rear foot pedal. The junction valve in the kit will replace the reservoir on your foot master cylinder. 

Our kits have been fitted to all variations of motorcycles now and is a universal kit to ALL motorcycles. For any questions of junction valve fitments please send us an email to sales@racetorx.co.uk with an image of your rear foot master cylinder so we can clarify the SKU you require.
