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

    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...
