Figured I should put paid to this 10-page thread.

I've been back on the road for a couple of months (I guess I heal fast) and the Brembo master was the best thing I could have done. Lever feel is fantastic, literally just what I wanted. Very little travel before engagement and the lever itself is adjustable for distance as well. The master has its own bleeder as well so for the first time ever, bleeding the front brakes was not a multi-day frustration fest.
