[Roadsters] rear brake cylinders

True, but folks have reported replacing the early 11/16 rear wheel cylinders with the later 3/4 (or 12/16) wheel cylinders without issue.

If upgrading an early 11/16 to the later 3/4 (12/16) is okay, maybe upgrading the later 3/4 (12/16) to 13/16 might be okay. I believe 13/16 were used on 510 and 520, maybe other models. Dunno if they'll fit, though.

15/16 are for the all-drum SPL310 and PL411.
