I'm doing the same thing on my '83 CB450SC. I broke the screws
holding the master cylinder reservoir cap on but found the reservoir
(the whole perch in fact), off a 700S is the same (except the
reservoir is metal, not plastic). I imagine the CB650SC reservoir
would be the same as well but I'd have to check. Don't know about
the calipers.

I have a 1982 CB450SC Nighthawk that I recently purchased from a
friend. It was garaged for about 5-6 years with a starter problem,
and I'm in the process of getting it running again. When I removed
the front brake caliper to change the pads and bleed the system, I
was unable to get the caliper pistons to release. I ended up
having to use a vice to get them to budge at all. I was thinking
about rebuilding the caliper, but I seem to be unable to find any
rebuild kits for this year. The local shop says the earliest one
they see listed is for the '86 450. Is there a kit from another
bike that might work for mine, or could I just reuse the old
seals? The brake fluid in the bike was pretty nasty, and I'm also
rebuilding the master cylinder piston as well, so I imagine the
whole system could use a good cleaning.
