Bryanj:
Personaly stainless piston kit from Honda Classics along with scrupulous cleaning of eal groove.
Braided lines you can buy hose and fittings and make yourself or i can to your measurements at cost.
Master kit only needed if not pumping or releasing

"Sorted mine with a 93-95 cbr600 master cylinder and different levers to match, braided lines and new pads. Stops on it nose now and plenty of feel"

Interesting!  Will the CBR master fit without any mods to the OEM CB400 switchgear or does different switchgear have to be used? 

Trigger:
A CBR 600 master cylinder will be for a double disc and not for a 400/4 single disc.  ;)

Mikep328:
Ah! OK...  I'm working/hoping to get adequate performance from the OEM but am wanting alternatives in case I can't get sufficient performance. 

FWIW, my CB400 is going to be my normal rider, not a weekend or "special event" bike.  Therefore, as much as I would like to retain the OEM gear/appearance, It's less important than being able to STOP.

Oddjob:
I'm going with the CB1300 MC Mike, it has a mirror mount and a front brake light switch if you ever need to remove the one on the bottom yoke. Look identical to the CBR600 one although I can't see any mirror mount on Roos pic.
