Most of the Japanese bikes from the 80's had 5/8" bars, so most would bolt right up. Just get one that dual front discs. Some times the bore size is on the master cylinder.

I got it and I like it. It's off an FJ1200. Nice lookin MC. I'll have to drill and tap a spot for the mirror, but that's no biggie. I like the sight glass and aluminum cap. I should be able to put my old handle on it with a little modification so that they'll match. Not a bad deal for $30.Tony K.

I rifled through my tools and found a tap the same size as the stock side mirror hole on the old MC and I drilled a hole and tapped it today. Looks Good. I'm taking some steel wool to it and giving it a brushed look. From being stored incorrectly, brake fluid destroyed the finish. Next to rebuild some calipers.Tony K.
