G'day everyone,
I'm setting out on my first bike rebuild and I'd like to find a nicer front brake master cylinder for my XS650 SH ('81 model special). It functions fine but I want to clean up the bars and that great big yellowed plastic m/c just ain't cutting it.
From what I have read I am after a 14mm bore m/c and I've found a nice looking unit on ebay but it looks like a no-name and also has the mirror mount which I don't want since I'll be running bar ends.

I like this idea from chop cult running the small tube in place of the reservoir but the stock m/c reservoir is part of the lever unit and I guess you need a front brake with a remote reservoir to do that mod.

Appreciate any help.
