Hi Martin, this unit matched my original specs perfectly, for single disc front. Had to hunt around a bit to find one.

One possible downside to fitting an aftermarket master cylinder is that the hand lever may not be separately available if it's damaged or broken.

Well done T S , you should have no issues. When you fit it check the condition of your brake hoses and replace if needed.
Good luck.

@GeeeBeee, my main concern is whether or not the new MC will be able to use my original brake hose. This is the last piece before I take her to get a state inspection. This restore has been a long journey, and I am ready to put some serious miles on this LTD.
@ed spangler, plans right now are to get her back on the road and commuting ASAP, trying to maintain the original look as much as possible. Down the road, who knows? I have seen some amazing material here on the forums, and I am biased towards cafe style builds.
Cheers!
