    Ebay front MC for 79 GS850

    I have been searching but can't find any info here on these (link below) 16 mm bore inexpensive MCs that supposedly fit my 79 Suzuki GS850. I have use a similar unit in the past on my 78 GL1000 and find it works quite well. Many folks on the goldwing forum I frequent have used them. Actually can be bought for less $ than a rebuild kit for my current MC which is leaking very slightly from the reservoir oring? and seems to need a couple of squeezes to bring the pressure right up to snuff. Also the oem reservoir cup (no longer available) is old and showing its' age. Wondering if anyone that has used the chinese MC can tell me if they are plug and play re banjo fittings and brake light hookup. Probably been discussed lots but can't find the threads. Thanks for any advice

      One other option is the rectangular top EX650 master. I've got one on my KZ bike and it works great. It has a mirror perch too.

              That is a nice offer but shipping to Canada is a killer. If I am still looking/thinking about it next winter I have a friend who winters in Az. May get back to you. Thanks for the thought tho.
