[QUOTE="zman, post: 84222, member: 2904"] Mine just came today goldwing girl, I paid about the same, I have never felt the front disk brake on a GL before but have had many bikes and it feels just like any other stock single piston dual disk set up I have ever had or used. I cant complain but there is one thing I wished I would have done and that was to look at my sellers other master cylinders. It seems he also sold them with the exact same specs only the reservoir is angled to accommodate the angle of the handle bars As it is now the brake fluid covers the feed holes and that really is all that matters, the lid seals very well and I can turn the bars all the way left and level out the fluid , install the cap and turn the bars strait and it doesn't leak so it has a good seal. Plus I got the extra rebuild kit as well. I think at the price they are I may order the better fitting angled master and just sell this one or hang on to it, not sure yet. I put some anti seize in the mounting bolts, The tap just wasn't all that good but it functions and it will get me down the road awhile.
