  • brake resivoir swap?

    my resivoir looks toast on the inside. the screw is rusted on the inside and i am currently soaking it in wd 40 to get the screws out of the body. i had to drill off the top of the allen screws because they were so rusted and pop the top off. and now the inside looks just as bad. should i just buy another used one or can i just buy any old one off ebay that looks to be in good shape. i did a search and there didn't seem to be too many master cylinder swap stuff.
    thanks.

    i am really excited about this bike but it looks like it might cost me alot to get it going... i may just get rid of the linked system in favor of newer parts that i can purchase on ebay this may be the cheaper route...

      Check out the thread by lazer. TC's post shows you some options.

          I will soon be replacing mine with one from an XJ12. Looks way better with no yellow res and is a much smaller design. I got it for like 30 of the bay with calipers that I will resell.
