For the rear MC i made a bolt on aluminum adapter plate for my Tarozzi foot rest with a direct linkage and a hydraulic brake light Switch for the Banjo bolt.
Did the same break light Switch on the front end.

Your brake linkage is real close to the setup I use on my Kz1000.
There are a few master cylinders out there that you can just weld two simple flat brackets to the frame tube to mount them. I like plain and simple ways of doing things myself!!!
I mounted the reservoir for the master cylinder to the side of my battery box under the side cover.

Thanks for those pics of the master, will have to do some mock ups.
For my issue with the chain hitting the tire a member on another forum suggested my hub could be incorrect and after looking at partzilla I do have the incorrect hub. Gotta love buying secondary. New and correct hub being sent via ebay and should arrive Friday. Hoping to know more after that, but will for sure have to buy another new rear sprocket.

I used a gsxr aftermarket rearsets they have a mount for the master.
I used a brake light switch bolt.
For the handlebar mounts I just bought a set of stock Kawasaki bar clamps and used them on the bottom and bolted though the upper tree.
For the stainless brake hose I found used triumph 675 naked lines and a zx10 rear.

Is the GS swingarm longer than stock? Does it allow for a wider tire?
