I bought this 81 MNS and have rebuilt her. The only thing left is the rear brakes. The rear MC is not original, or at least it doen't look like what's pictured in the tech tips. I have two other mc that are from xs1100's, which too are slightly different from each other. One has two hoses coming out and the other only has one. I'm going to use the one with just one hose because I know where that hose goes to and it's already been rebuilt. My question concerns the push rod going from the brake pedal to the mc. The one that was on the old one was held into the mc by a C-clip. I took it off but haven't a clue as to how it worked because all that was in there was a shallow hole with a rounded end. No rubber, no compression, nothing. So now my question is how does the rod supposed to connect on to the mc? Does it just rest against it? Is it held together somehow? What does the rod supposed to look like in case it had the wrong one? Please shed some light so that I can get this bad boy on the road. Thanks,
Phill
