1981 KZ650-D4 - Brake Master Cylinder and Handle
02 May 2017 14:12 - 02 May 2017 14:25
Hi,
I want to replace my old master brake cylinder and handle (whole assembly).
I have talked with different people and, they have suggested Brembo on ebay?
It`s a dual brake system I have, so it has to fit to my existing tubing...
Please see attached pictures from my bike.
Is it 5/8 inch I have ?
Do you know what I can use ? have you upgraded?
I also want to replace the clutch handle same time, so they have same design/look.

If I purchase these also:
Then I have a complete set with same design and look?

If your bike still has the original brake lines they should be replaced. The rubber deteriorates and scale develops on the inside.

I will replace them, but I need to know if the brake cylinder you find to be on ebay will fit the original brake lines?, so I can order identical to what I have.

That EX650 master has the outlet port at 90 degrees to yours. Look at the photos to see for yourself.

I can see that, but I was more thinking about the dimension of fittings for the line. Will my line or a new one with same size fit these EX650 master cylinder?
"connection dimension", I don`t know the exact word
hope you understand

What has the forum member done, if you want to upgrade to newer brake cylinder, what do you with your mirrors? how to mount them?
I want both handles to have same design these mean I need to change both side...
