Piet quoted this in an earlier post.
The clutch M/C piston has a small plastic inlay where the lever bears on it, apparently to prevent rattle and stiff action of the lever.  Missing from the brake side, probably for safety reasons.  Otherwise, both repair kits are identical.

I can find the PS15 brake repair kit (steel piston) here
http://www.gutsibits.co.uk/pr/TheShop/index.php?q=Master+cylinder+repair+kit&f=d&Model=0&search=SEARCH
but not the PS15 clutch one, which is alloy and has the plastic insert.
Any ideas, or do I just use the same one as the brake and not worry about the plastic insert?

You didn't read the second line.... "This is for INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES only as this kit is no longer available....."

Where did you go through med skool again???  :D :D
 
Studied med, not fucking English Lit  :LOL:

Answered his question but, eh?
 
I dont think you have much choice but given the operation of both clutch and brake are the same and the master cylinders are the same i don't see a problem.  ( yes i know they are LH/RH but the castings are mirror image)  :D
 
In fact, Paddy, they're not the same, although it's my fault that, that isn't clear. What I showed in the photo was the rear brake piston. (I was  just trying to show the difference between a brake and a clutch PS15.)
My problems are greater than just the above, because , I find,  I'm one of the unlucky souls who had a PS14 front brake master, which I can see from posts back in 2008/9 were obsolete then.
Mdinaitalia show one, but I'm pretty sure it's out of stock ( I'll ring him later).
https://www.laverda-paradies.de/shop/Bilder/Artikelbilder/56-66A.jpg, shows one and "helpfully" notes these were rarely fitted, and has been priced accordingly.
I may just be better sourcing a whole new PS15 master........if I can find one!
Hey Ho.
 
I have a PS 15 master in stock but they aint cheap so if  :-[ you can finds a piston kit........
 
I have the repair kits in stock also a few PS15's but what I tend to do now is just fit brand new square bodied Brembo master cyls, they are not particularly expensive and they give a much nicer feel to the brakes.

Thanks, Keith....and Paddy. I will persevere for a bit in looking for the PS14 repair kit.
Keith , the PS15 repair kits you have- are they the clutch type with the plastic insert? Or do I just have to go with the plain ended brake type.
Just be clear at the moment  I have
A PS15 rear brake master, with steel piston and plain end (repair kit readily available)
A PS15 clutch master withe plastic end and alloy piston ( can't find plastic ended repair kit)
And
A PS 14 front brake master, with plain end and steel piston. (Repair kit obsolete and not readily available)
I have sometime so would like to stick with trying to match the as fitted stuff before going for the non standard.
