OEM NC30 master cylinder is 14mm, but what matters is to match the master cylinder to the calipers being used (or vice versa). Early 900cc 'Blade masters were 14mm, later ones were 3/4" or 11/16". I don't know about the radials used on the 1000s.

Dragging up a fairly old topic here.... Richyrd5, did the 07+ 600rr master cylinder fit ok in terms of clearance issues? which brake lines did you use?
I have 04 600RR calipers, lines and MC at present but think my MC could do with a rebuild so tempted by something more modern
