    Kaw brake mod-zuk MC ?

    I've done the kawi brake upgrade and i'm wondering is there any reason I cant use the original Master cylinder?
    That way i dont have to worry about the brake switch and i just like the look of the MC.
    Now that i think about it can i use the same brake lines and just swap the banjo bolts?
    Thanks for your help

    As long as it is one for a dual disc set-up, go right ahead and use it. If they are the '89 zx750 calipers (ala saltymonks twin-pot mod) you can use the stock style suzuki lines and banjos.

        I've used the stock master on a 80GS1000G... in my opinion it actually gives a better feel than using the Kawasaki one that is designed to go with those brakes!

        Make sure it's in good health & the release port is clear etc.

          I'm using the original one from my 750 on my twin pot kitted 850. I love how much better they are than the stock stuff was.
