I believe that they are fairly standard M/C's  supply comes in top and exits side. Top feed pipes were copper.   VW "green" brake hose for connectors to reservoirs.   Steel lines out........

Wow!   Ever have one of them moments where 3 decades goes WHOOSH past the backs of your eyeballs!!!? Feels creepy to say that.....!   I thought I had pictures of my M/C when I sent it out for sleeve job.... blow out pic's and new seals!   ( I have pics of the rear balance valve thingy....that that was WAY after getting the M/C and clutch cyl's back in the car!!!

Well, that was nearly 30 years ago, pre-ish digital cameras! (for my budget anyway!)   I have pic's.....they are just in analog form.....and NO IDEA which pile of pictures they are in.....OK I can actually get within a few feet of them......file cabinet....desk drawer files.....ugh!

Seems like yesterday I was blowing that M/C apart on my work bench!!!  It was one of the first jobs I ever did on my car, other than pouring fresh gas in the tank to start it up for the first time in 13-15 years.....only to see gas running out from under the car across the pavement!!! NO do not turn the switch.........! I guess replacing that rotted out fuel line was first job......ish!

If I run across the photos....will SCAN them in and post....  sheesh!
