smaller brake master cylnder

.

So will one made for dual disc not work for a single disc? I have a single front brake.

Some modern mcs don't have a hole for the mirror. As Patton alluded to, dual disk bikes have a 5/8" piston bore (or ~16mm) while single disk bikes have a 1/2" bore (or ~12-14mm). With an alternative mc, you'll have to splice the brake light wiring... no big deal.

That only applies to Kawasaki, and maybe only the KZ models, other makes/models may use different size master cylinders.

I posted a chart showing different master cylinders with different calipers, showing the pressure generated. I'll see if I can find it again.

Found it:

These are all dual disk setups, look at the different master cylinder sizes.
