    What size master cylinder bore is best? 12mm or the 16mm I found these online and I'm going to order one.

    The built-in angle on the m/c pictured is for the stock buckhorn bars. Get a m/c for a non-turbo 650 Seca RJ to go with drag bars.

    Neither. The factory bore size is 14mm. A 2mm change in either direction makes for an unplesant braking experience.

    Yes.

    He could use the 12mm Master that he linked, but the brakes might be a bit touchy in comparison to the stock ratio.
