Default Adapter

You might want to double check that adapter……the one I see on speedway is to convert from manual to power. Not power to manual. The brake pedal geometry and master cylinder piston diameter and are different from power vs. manual . Also the wheel cylinders diameters are different. While your set up might work, it just might not work as well as stock manual. And I’m not any know it all, I just would hate to see ya put all that effort into your ride and then wreck it because the brakes didn’t work well!
