If you want something Italian from the same era I think Brembo master cylinders fitted to 350/500 Ducatis etc would be about the same piston size. If you are not fussed then several people on this forum have been satisfied with japanese /Chinese ones :-)

You'll probably get the same advice as on fb. Did you decide against the Mdina ones?

One of the dangers of buying a random Japanese/Chinese one is sourcing the right seal kit when the time comes, or the next owner not knowing what to source.

DD,

The price of a new Chinese one one is less than a seal kit for a Grimeca! Not particularly reusable but a solution if there are no other options.

I have an unused one.

Completely agree, but personally I feel some responsibility to maintain the Italian-ness of my bike as it's lasted this long with the correct parts. Everyone knows the other option exists but they're made of chocolate and likely can't be re-sealed. Just a waste of time and metal.
