Hope you are enjoying your Silk!  Andover Norton are stockists for AP Lockheed parts.  Had all the parts needed to to rebuild my master cylinder.  Give them a call, they are very helpful.  The master cylinder for a single disc front brake has a smaller diameter piston than the one for the twin disc.  I believe these are the part numbers for the master cylinders:

APCP2215 for single disc 0.625" bore

APCP2410 for twin disc 0.7" bore (this is the master cylinder fitted to my twin disc Silk)

The brake caliper on my Silk is a CP2195.  The numbers are cast into the body.  Again Andover Norton has the repair kits.

The AP Racing website is good too.  Look under Motorcycle/Classic, I believe they re-manufactured some of these obsolete parts following a demand for them caused by the fire at the National Motorcycle Museum.

Hope this helps
