So I'm restoring this 1985 Honda FourTrax 250 ( the utility, not the 250X and certainly not the 250r).

Just my luck, I need a front master cylinder, and they have been discontinued from Honda. I see lots of levers on ebay, but I don't see any complete master cylinders.

However, it got me thinking. The brake line looks standard Honda, I'm wondering if I can get just about any old Honda front master cylinder and hook up the brakeline. It looks like a standard banjo bolt, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work.

Anybody try something similar?
