Default Kawasaki rear brake master cylinders?

Anyone know if Kawasaki rear brake master cylinders are generally interchangeable? I've checked a few out and they all seem to be roughly the same. It looks like KHI favour sharing components across multiple bikes a little more than other manufacturers!

I'm wondering whether I can use a ZX-9R item on my old z750e...

Thanks,

Mark

Really would not surprise me if you could, generally with this stuff, if it looks similar... it is the same

If you need any specific measurements I have a J (01) model zx6r in bits in the garage, I can get that checked for you?

Generally speaking as long as the bore is the same, it'll be fine.

I may take you up on the offer when I receive my new Tarozzi rearsets in the post. They're supposed to be a direct swap but I have some Raask rearsets on at the moment and can't tell how much butchery was done to make them fit... I've found a few 'improvements' whilst doing up the old Z which don't really stand up to close inspection. I really must take a few pictures, I've had some nice work done so far.

Thanks,

Mark
