    you know I never bag HD but you think they get the brakes right , seems like its a standard thing can you get after market ones no point getting the same if they just go again

    I had the same problem earlier on. Posted a threat about it here, and received a lot of replies with some great ideas..thanks to you all.

    Someone added some photos of what to do. I am not sure how to paste the link to that thread but it may help ya, but if you searched Leaking Master Cylinder you should find it.

    My front brake master cylinder was leaking. Got the master cylinder as level as possible and removed the cap, it appeared to be overfull, so I used a clean syringe and removed some brake fluid, cleaned the seal and cap very well, put it all back together and never had a problem since.

    Good luck with it..

     

    Cheers
