    EX- Have you checked with Andreas? Also, I've heard that the Mikes XS dual caliper master cylinder will work. I'm cheap, but I'm not easy .
    I think I have a loose screw behind the handlebars.

      Most any M/C will work, as long as the bore is similar to what you have now,
      (11/16 inch) and will clamp to a 7/8 inch handlebar. Mikesxs sells a direct bolt on replacement.

        easy

        - I have two of the parts and more m/c's and they work fine no leaks. - I may be easy but I am not cheap
