If its realy that much of an angle use one from a bmw airhead where the master is under the tank and operated by cable from the lever

NOT MY FAULT! You asked for the jets mate!!!

DomP:
On a single disc setup is going to a 5/8" mc going to be much of a problem?  That gives me lots of radial options

K2-K6:
What's the original mc bore diameter on the 500 ? Is it 14mm ?

With that, 5/8 will give a hydraulic loss (disadvantage) but likely the mechanical on radial will be the opposite direction. 

It shouldn't be too much in the way of overall effect, but only really thorough way is to try one.

If lever pivot is "bearing-ed" or very competent bush, and caliper is meticulously on target for free movement, seal condition etc, then highly probable it'll work well.

You'll not be far out of bed in reality, more a preference in how you like them to feel and ideal potency is going to be up for debate.
