    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I swapped the forks and got a set of calipers & rotors from a GS650 (not sure of the year/model). The original master cylinder is on another bike all together so I was looking for an aftermarket replacement. Any ideas what size piston diameter I'll need in the new master cylinder?

Thanks in advance fellas.
 
Did I ask this question in the wrong area of the forum or something?
 
I figured someone else would answer so.......The answer is 5/8 or 16mm.The one on my 85 750 is 5/8 and I just seen a 16mm for dual discs on MikesXS.At least that's where I think it was.:confused:

No this is the correct forum, I think it stopped raining and we all went for ride yesterday.

As SV stated, look for a 5/8 inch or 16mm master cylinder. I am looking for a replacement myself, supposedly any dual disk master cylinder will work. Pay attention to mirror mounts and angle orientation of reservoir, when the MC is on handlebars, the reservoir should be level with ground. Many MC are angled to fit the angled handlebars of sportbikes.
 
Thanks guys!

I plan on using a remote reservoir and have bar end mirrors, so that shouldn't be a problem.

GSX-R stuff will work for you then. I'm using one on my bike.
