    Master cylinder Mirror issue

    I changed the handle bar this weekend for a drag bar type. Really better than the stock one IMO. My pb is the right mirror which is loose now. The stem doesn't stay in place. I think the thread of the master cylinder is dying. Any idea what I can do ? I thought of putting some blue...

    Cleaing master cylinder

    My front brake M/C looks like crap (and its full of it too): Clutch M/C looks the same. What I'd like to do is bead blast the outside casing and powder coat it. I'm wondering about the best way to clean it up in prep for coating. There is sludge buildup inside the reservoir. Can I flush...

    master cylinder ?

    Ok the master cylinder the most use is off the fjr1300 and some have used the R1 they are a 14mm so is the smaller piston (14mm) used cause it is easier to pull/move the brake caliper but provide more force so trying to find a fjr1300 m/c is a pain ( i want the mirror mount) so i looked at...

    Better levers for stock master cylinders?

    Hi folks: Are there any replacement levers (either adjustable or shorty or both) to replace the front brake and clutch levers on the VMax? (I have an '89, if that matters. Also, I'm not yet interested in the calipers, hust the levers.) Thanks. Elimax

    Front caliper/master options

    So I want to upgrade the brakes on my '88. I have a complete front-end off a '96 Vmax so I'll use those 43mm forks (will get aftermarket springs). I would also like some R1-style calipers and a new master cilinder. Money is an issue, so I'll try to find the parts used. I've read through the...

    Different master cylinder

    I was wondering if there was a different master cylender that would fit on the bars that would have a little bit better power and adjustment than the stock master cylender?

    Purpose of clutch master cylinder switch?

    I discovered that the switch on my clutch master cylinder has a problem with it. What is the purpose of this switch? Brake switch operates lights on the brake m/c but what does this switch on the clutch m/c do?

    Master Cylinder Leak

    Today was my first day out on the new to me 06 max with 2K miles. Fun to say the least. Noticed that fluid was leaking from both the clutch and front brake masters. The leak was in the exact same spot on both. If you look in the photo you can see a very small square recess in parting line...

    85 Max - best pads, master cylinders for the price?

    Been going through a bunch of posts. Looks like many of you are using EBC HH sintered pads. Also looks like some have gone to FJR master cylinders. And of course many of you are using better calipers. I don't want to "brake" the bank but do have some questions about brake options for my 85: 1...

    FJR lever on stock clutch master ?

    Does anybody know if a FJR clutch lever will fit on a stock clutch master cyl ? I want the adjustability of the FJR lever, but I'm too much of a cheapa$$ to buy a master if I don't need it. Yamahammer sells the lever for 58 bucks, but they probably won't take it back if it doesn't fit.
