Bigger brake master cylinder -z650B1

I have added an extra front disk to my '76 z650B1, but I think the master cylinder is too small to accomodate the extra caliper. Does anyone have any suggestion as to what cylinder I could replace it with and where I might get one please?

Cheers, Chris

Any of the master cylinders - and line splitters from the dual-disc street Kaws up to 1980 should work just peachy.

Also - KZC/P - cop bike master cylinders way up into the 80's and maybe into the 90's should also do the trick.

Give John a shout at westernescort@msn.com - he'll be able to fix you right up.

Excellent dOOd, he is.

You could use any of the master cylinders off any of the kz650's that came with dual discs. I believe that the b1 and b2 are the only single disc models, so if you look for one from any other 650 you'll be in good shape.
