Topic: CB550F Front Brake Upgrade

I have a weeping master cylinder. I could rebuild it, or I could go further and start replacing parts to improve performance.

What's everyone's thoughts?

Here you go (BTW, your 550 also has a 38mm caliper):

Cheers. Now to find one at a reasonable price. Australia, unfortunately, sucks for parts and shipping from overseas at present takes an eternity.

I recently ordered some parts from 4into1 who are in San Francisco (I'm in NZ) - ordered on a Friday, arrived and at my door Monday morning !
Should be a similar service to Oz I would think.
If you don't know 4into1, they have a mix of aftermarket (Chinese) and genuine Honda parts.

At least you now know that you are looking for a 12mm piston master cylinder.
