nissin master cylinder and tokico calipers

Post by andyvanderpandy »

is what i have just noticed is on my bike. is this normal, or further evidence that my bike has had a run in with wall in its past?!

i only noticed as where the tube from the reservoir joins on top of the master cylinder there is some fluid weeping from it. im guessing this will limit the amount of pressure the system is able to apply too.

nissin M/C with tokico calipers is normal, dont know why..

weeping from there shouldnt affect braking performance as its "upstream" but should be fixed.

oookay. thanks!

the weeping is coming from the base of the upright connector on the M/C, is there a seal there, or has something worn through?
