Suggest calling Andover Norton about the master cylinder spares. They list the parts used on Nortons separately and they are a lot cheaper than a repair kit. Just quote the master cylinder number.
The string or wire isn't long. If I remember correctly, I removed the spring link at the gearbox sprocket, tied the ends together with a piece of string. Pulled the chain back to clear the sprocket for removal. Reverse procedure to refit.
