Title: UGH - Need Master Cylinder
Post by: SIKDMAX on June 22, 2008, 03:45:26 PM
Whoever the POS who had this thing before me thought they were Popeye and tightened everything down so damn tight on this bike.  Finally got 1 screw off the lid on the master cylinder, but the other one is stripped.  Does anyone have one I can buy and swap over?  HOW LAME  :2guns: :2guns:

Is the screw head stripped, or the threads?  If it's just the head, drill that sucka out!
...but you probably already know this...

Great Bob you my hero!  Got a pic of it? Is it the complete master cylinder on top, with reservoir, cap, screws, etc... and I can just bolt up the banjo bolt to it? 

Yes just the head is stripped out.  I was going to drill it or attack with a dremel and hope to keep enough exposed that I could get the lid off then grab it with vice grips to back it out, but it would certainly be an easier job to just swap out master cyls. 

Ill send you a PM Bob... thank you!  :bowdown: :bowdown:
