Master cylinder replacement

[ddeboer]

Question: Is there a master cylinder I can swap for the OEM I currently have on my 1983 GS1100E? I'm I'd like to pick up a used MC from a wrecked bike-something newer, more modern.

Thankyou in advance.

If you can dream it

Someone else here might be able to give you some more specific advice but I just put a master cylinder off a CBR900RR on my 1100E this weekend and it seems to work alright, plus, now I've got an adjustable lever. Just make sure you have a banjo bolt the right size for your lines and the right thread pitch for the master cylinder.

newer gsxr will 14mm piston will bolt right up to a dual disc gs system.

14mm is too small unless you like a spongy lever. The stock master has a 5/8" master (don't ask me why it's an English measurement), but you can use a 16 mm if you come across one too. Partsnmore.com has some masters they list under the Yamaha section that aren't too expensive, although I'm not sure if the mirror threads are the same as a Suzuki.
