Once again thanks for the awesome help Chuck. I'm tempted to buy that master cylinder. But my 750 only has one front disk. Is it the same?Heres a 1000 one..which is the same dual disc one that the 750 uses. Not a bad price as it has a lever, mirror vibration dampner, and a really nice cap with it.
I did find a pad retainer this morning. Its the round metal one. Do you need the round one or the plastic one with that notch deal in it??? I ask as I dont know if yours is a stock 78 one or not...Round metal one as seen here......

That's what I had originally thought. From my research I think all the ninja MC's had a lever with finger groves in it. I think my lever is correct to the MC. I think my best current guess is a later 80's Suzuki. But they offered too many models to determine what it's off of exactly.Comment

Thought for some reason it was an E model with dual front brakes. In any case, the master i linked will work just fine. And PM me your address and i will get the retainer out to you this weekend...No charge.MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)
