    Has anyone fitted the RS levers onto a previous model R?

    They look much better and the adjusters are a lot nicer, I'm just not sure whether or not they would fit.

    The RS brake lever has adjustable leverage so I would think it unlikely on the brake side .

    You'd need to change the entire master cylinder, because the modulation adjuster wheel on the lever is specific to the master cylinder itself - making it a very expensive lever change o_O

    Perhaps not very well explained, but it's based on the fact that when my modulation adjuster wheel seized up, Triumph replaced the master cylinder along with the lever...and even the brake lines too! They said it was all one part - and it's also the reason why you can't change the levers on an RS (unless anyone knows different?).

    The lever/cylinder is a Brembo MCS 19:21.

    Thanks for that, very helpful.

    I rather suspected that it may not be a simple and inexpensive job, as the master cylinders on the World of Triumph website have different reference numbers for the R and the RS.

    I've looked into this as I would like to do the same. Clutch lever assembly is £75 from world of triumph, you need ti unscrew the sensor from your old one and screw to the new one. The assembly includes the lever.
    Brake side you need a new mc, £220 if i remember correctly. So not a cheap option but one i may go for in the future.
