Jeff you only missed it because I hadn't said anything about it yet but these will eventually go on. Might be a bit though only because I got so much crap going on that finding time to work on the bike has been challenging. What master cylinder would you recommend using? Also need to order up your newly designed tach delete piece which looks gorgeous.

Ah yes, that would explain it!
As for a suitable Master Cylinder; That largely depends on what your after for performance, lever feel, Style, etc. For most general-purpose / casual rider builds, I personally prefer a good used NISSIN brand 14mm aka 5/8" CBR master with the built in brake switch & integrated reservoir. Those have a basic traditional look but will also eliminate the need for the old pressure brake switch and junction block that mounts on the lower triple-clamp. Also most of them have an adjustable grip range lever. You will also find a lot of cheep Chinese knock offs that look the part, but are basically disposable.
If your going for a more compact, modern, performance unit with more adjustability, there are some nice radial masters available. Some can be VERY expensive, but can also be found in good used condition. (These are especially helpful if you have clip-ons or limited handle bar space.) Most of them will have a remote reservoir (little cup on a hose) but there are some that come with a nice discreet integrated reservoir.
If you would like to order that Tach delete; You can contact me directly at jstephens7@wi.rr.com Also; I have a new & improved Speedometer delete, if you're converting to a Modern gauge.
