Has anyone fitted one of the gsxr mc/levers to their steed ?
Bunch of people. do a search on this site with the bottom page search (not the sidebar one that finds nothing).

If so, which year gsxr 1000 is the best one to pluck an mc/lever assy from to use on my S3 ?
2005/2006 GSX-R 1000 is the best. They were designed to work with the K5/K6 Tokicos from the start and they do this very well. 2006 750 should be 1:1, but I have not confirmed this myself.

I’m wondering if the form/fit/function of one year is superior to any other year. Perhaps the piston diameter of the newer gsxr master cylinders is larger than the piston diameter of previous years which would make the newer ones a wiser choice.
No idea about K7. K5/K6 is the safe bet on eBay. Also when ordering brake lines, pay close attention to how the top banjos exit the m/cyl. If you do not use the K6 m/cyl banjo slot, but end up mounting the banjos a bit further up front, the lever movement space becomes pretty tight. I ended up grinding a bit off the lever just to play things safe, so the lever will not catch on the banjos when braking.
