You need the one that comes with the calipers, so just get a complete set. Easy. Otherwise from any R1 98-02 or similar aged R6 will work. 14 mm as you say.

The difference between the two you linked are just how they handle the brake fluid. MT07 have a big, square built-in tank. The R1 have a remote reservoir. You should get the later.

You should get one with a remote reservoir, such as those from the R1/R6.
