rear master cylinder fitment
« on: June 24, 2013, 03:35:44 AM »
So, I stripped out my rear master cylinder trying to force a banjo bolt that didn't fit, because I am a jackass.  After looking at the price of a new oem one, I am checking ebay.  Can anyone tell me what other models' brake cylinders will fit?  Could this be a good time to upgrade?

Don't know if there are any upgrades for them  :|

Hey Conbread!

I'm sorry to hijack the OP's thread, but is that a Zip-Ty tank you have?  
What pipe are you running?  
Can we see a pic of the other side of the bike?

By the way, congrats on your great race results!  :mrgreen:

And what project would that be?  :-)

I tried this with an 04 yz250 master and I get nothing out of it.  Can't even generate enough pressure to bleed the line.  I tried a rebuild kit, but no change.  Starting to think I got hosed on the ebay.

if i remember right it took a bit to bleed it, I reverse bled it to get all the air out.  Works really good
