Pull the seals and piston out, measure them, google the measurements, buy new parts. :Punk:

Its okay i get the piston kit i got it for the other side (brakes) either here or from the uk

Am pretty sure its the top master cylinder cause seen leaking and outside seal was damaged

In past years on old bikes I've had ... I've fitted master cylinder's of other motorcycle brand/size (clutch and brake) with few issues. They do the same job.
Use clean fluid and bleed it properly ... and there shouldn't be a problem.

It can make a massive difference if you go too small/big though
That's what she told me...
