No eBay APP ID défined in Kunena configuration<Has a look> That's a Nissin so definitely wrong.

You could use a universal one with correct diameter (13mm piston?) to get it back on the road while you search for the correct one. Brembo rectangular reservoir? Possibly something from a Ducati from about same era might be close.

Have a look at pages 103-108 of the Saturno manual PDF for technical details of the OEM M/C.

Thanks for the tip, by coincidence my local bike shop suggested the same thing. I think there was something on this forum a while ago suggesting 11 not 13 which I'll need to check out. Cheers.

At this rate you'll be up and away in no time. Great stuff.

Hope you're on the mend too ;}

Thanks to a steroid injection in my shoulder this week I've now got enough movement to start to strip and repair the Saturno. Thank you to 72degrees for pointing out the Brembo front brake master cylinder on eBay which I've just ordered. I must also mention Bob Wright (who else?!) for a number of parts he's supplied, particularly a brand new swinging arm still in the factory wrapping - brilliant. The one part I'm now struggling to find is the rear brake lever. I'm wondering if I could get one made if I could borrow an original, probably get two made given recent events! Any thoughts on the feasibility of this idea? Cheers.
