Brembo Celebrates 50 Years Of Racing Brake Technology With This Special Part

In the world of high-performance motorcycles, few names carry as much weight as Brembo. Whether you’re a track addict, canyon-carving squid, or just flexing on your buddies at your local Cars and Coffee, chances are, if your ride (whether on two or four wheels) has serious stopping power, it’s got Brembo on it.

Born in Italy but revered globally, Brembo has become the benchmark for pretty much all braking systems. It’s not just about performance; it’s about pedigree, precision, and, let’s be real, a fair bit of flex.

Now, the braking giant is celebrating 50 years of racing success by doing what it does best—making riders drool.

As title sponsor of the 2025 MotoGP round at Mugello, Brembo has also dropped a limited-edition RCS Corsa Corta master cylinder kit, limited to just 500 units worldwide. It’s got MotoGP-derived tech, premium finishes, and commemorative packaging that makes it nothing short of a collector’s item. Heck, it almost looks too pretty to even slap onto a motorcycle.

So what makes it special?

For starters, this isn’t just a parts bin special, as it’s engineered to perform at the highest level imaginable. The RCS Corsa Corta system features adjustable bite points and responsiveness straight from the premier class of motorcycle racing. It’s tech that’s been battle-tested at over 350 kilometers per hour (218 miles per hour) and refined to deliver razor-sharp feel and feedback.

For riders who enjoy track days, weekend rides through the twisties, or even just bolting on the fanciest parts to their bikes, this kit hits all the right notes. Serious riders and collectors alike will see it for what it is: a rare mix of function, history, and clout. Bolt it onto your race bike or your garage queen—either way, it’ll turn heads.

And if brake hardware that'll cost you four figures isn’t in the cards for your current build? There’s still something to be excited about. Limited runs like this often signal what’s coming down the pipeline. As with most things in motorsport, today’s unobtanium becomes tomorrow’s upgrade path for everyday riders.

Bottom line? Brembo isn’t just marking a milestone, it’s flexing its legacy and reminding the motorcycle world who really runs the show when time comes to slow things down.
