What is different from the 450r master cylinder and the 400ex master cylinder?

Was the fluid in the 400ex ever changed? I belive it is recommended the fluid be changed annually. Just wondering if it was the the master cylinder that improved things or if adding new fluid did it, assuming the lines were bled with fresh fluid after the 450r cylinder was installed;)

Looking forward to summer time?:D

Does the 450r use the same brake lever as a 400ex? I think I may swap over to a 450r master cylinder.
