  • Front Master Cylinder Reservoir

    I really need a front master cylinder reservoir. The brass brushing that the cap screws thread into pulled out last year and I had j/b welded them in but j/b weld doesn't like brake fluid and gets soft. Do I don't want to be using this reservoir much longer.

      Nate I may have one that you can have for free. Let me check in the garage and get back to you. I am not certain of the condition as it has been a while since I last looked at it.

          Nobodies gonna know that bike when you get done with it Nate. It's gonna look so different from the bike you started with SWMBO is gonna think you got another bike and kill you. We would miss you.

          Really man, so far your doing a really fine job on that bike, I just feel for you not having it done yet with riding weather approaching.

                Sorry Nate. The one I have is the type with the screw going completely through it. I do have the whole perch and reservoir and one screw but that is all. If ya wanted to change it out and had the parts I am missing I would glady send it. Good luck!
