So... I'm really kinda curious now. Brake master, immaculate save for some road dust on the outside where it's not as easy to wipe down, etc. Absolutely NO signs of ever weeping, paint is all pristine. Open it up, fluid is clean, inside is SPOTLESS, like fresh out of the mold spotless. I've opened NEW masters that were grungier. Line, banjos, clearly original, caliper outside cleaned up spotless with little effort, pistons only had a dusting of brake dust that canned air and a toothbrush eliminated revealing clean hardware underneath, anti-rattle spring is clean, pistons pushed in easily by hand... meanwhile pads are fried, pad pin is corroded and flat spotted. So I didn't bother tearing it apart and ultrasonicing it, fluid was clean, nothing was binding so... fresh set of EBC EPFA pads, fresh fluid and properly bled. Last owner had the bike from 2018 on, claimed to never had any brake work done?
On the rotor front, I don't have a good known flat surface but I suspect the EBC is slightly warped from it not quite sitting flat on my workbench top. Honed it anyways, remounted with the old style bolt setup, no springs. Floats well, there isn't an obvious 'tight' spot when spinning the front wheel by hand now, but who knows. At this point I only need that front brake to work good enough for street testing once I rebuild the fuel pump.
I've found a source of usable 5mm finned rotors, I've got updated mount kits on hand for that eventuality. They've got new calipers as well, though the price is a bit more than what's floating on eBay, not quite ready to make that commitment yet, will see how things look once it's otherwise running well.
On the parts hunt side of things, seems new OEM clutch levers are hard to find, and I haven't tried chasing down the regular pivot bolts vs the long Ulysses setups for hand guards, my lever is pretty dang sloppy at this point so that's on the list of stuff to find.
