Master cylinder was satin black originally so simonez satin black tough paint is your friend there. Simple to use aerosol no primer required. 
Or if you want to stay metal finish then chrome cleaner, toothbrush and elbow grease.

But I have a question for the forum what are my tyre choices going to be with this bike what do you guys run and why plus i kinda am building this bike for touring so i am thinking that spoked wheels are going to be better than the stock ones but would any of you guys know of a previous discussion on this forum about wheel and tyre choice. Appreciate the help. Also should I actually just stay with my stock wheels.They are white was that even a stock colour? So I also got some of the original tools and I was hoping to get the bike as how can I say this "As stock peroid OEM as possible " mainly this year and do my first proper tour thinking Italy and around the Tirol region I am in Germany so...but do you guys know or have photos of a stock KZ750 e tool kit cause if I can I will.
so was white even stock the family I got the bike from are petrol heads who have really looked after it and knew what they where doing.Shit I was given spare gaskets and o rings even the Pannier/luggage boxes They honestly have basically given me the bike. So a shout to Chris and his Father and Mother for the help and support I really mean this thanks to them and thanks to you guys for the advice and help.
