Loading up for a ride today, I couldn't help but notice my wife's 09 DRZ400 had an enclosed reservoir, serviced a dual pot caliper, and worked well with a short handle and minimal pull. Does anyone know the master cylinder piston diameter, or conversely, did you have to open them up and measure them (Norm) to determine size? Thanks, Todd

[Norm Keller]

Is the bike an "S" or an "E" (assuming US or Canada bike?); the reference I see shows that the S has 13mm and E has 11 mm. Are you considering swapping masters on a KLR? If so, please keep us in the loop as interested to hear how it works out. ------ Original Message ------ From: "zoot" To: DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com; "Norm Keller" Sent: 2015-01-25 6:12:47 PM Subject: Master Cylinder options

Hi All, My son wanted a better front brake on his "A" model, long story. I have a "C" model with 41mm forks and the standard Master Cylinder for the 2 piston caliper. I found a complete Tengai setup, forks, duel piston caliper and bought a Tengai/"C" model wave disc on Ebay. Fitted everything to the "A" model, Tengai forks the same diameter as the "A", and tried it out briefly. Results - The Tengai fork springs were very soft and different diameter springs to the "A" and "C". They were just about bottomed out on the "A". The original "A" model Master Cylinder could not cope with the duel piston and even with the lever pulled hard to the bars only just managed a little braking. Conclusion - This attempted modification was a failure so I restored everything to normal. Sold all the Tengai parts for a large profit and still have the brand new wave rotor for the "C" model. I will be interested to see the final outcome as the Ebay large disc mod is not available to Australia and the EBC mod is too expensive.   Cheers Glenn
