1981 KZ650-D4 - Brake Master Cylinder and Handle

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 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...
