i don't see why not. unless it's really small, it should work fine.

if its the origional its 1/2" bore,ltd mastercylinder has a 5/8" bore for dual discs.ive used both without a problem.on a sidenote has anybody ever had a 1/2" mastercylinder bored to 5/8" since parts for the 1/2" are hard to get?
Still recovering,some days are better than others.

plummen and Nick,
Redline Cycle has rebuild kits for the early 1000 trapezoid cylinders, I believe the 78 1000 A models shared the m/c with my 78 650 B model. Does yours have "14" or "14mm" cast on the bottom of the m/c? 14mm is .55 inch, or it's the 1/2" bore model.
