Default the new metal master cylinder

dont start contacting me just yet but the new metal master is here and going on trial from this weekend

it hopefully will make changing the master easier and it will not need any pipe work changing as it has been made to fit the original pipe

it is a brand new design and i can,t tell you where from but i hope to put master cylinder failure to bed once and for all


i will make regular reports and when i am satisfied its all good i will then put them up for sale

this has taken a long time to sort out and i just hope it works












please dont ask me for any more details at the moment i need to trial it

Nice one!

Did you modify the reservoir angle as well or does the cap still sit tight against the foam padding on the bulkhead?
