I know that most that have updated/upgraded their master cylinders go with FZ1, R1, FJR, units. I have been contemplating using a set of VFR750/800 master cylinders.




I'm not the fastest FJ rider, I am 'half-fast', the fastest slow guy....

Cool. I like the silver finish and smooth contour lines. Do they have  adjustable levers?

I like the fluid window facing the rider.

The Master Cylinder in the first post is the clutch, here is a photo of the matching Brake Master Cylinder with adjustable lever. They are also available in Black that came on certain years.

They look long. Be carful of the bar riser interfering with the angle at which you can mount them.
