Howdy:

the rear brake master cylinder for my '95 S2 has gone bad; after I changed the brake pads without opening the bleeder, it's pumping air only. Tried everything to get brake pressure back on with a guy who really knows how to do this.

Unfortunately, the dealer can't order a new rear brake master cylinder anymore, not even a rebuild kit. I'm dead in the water for several weeks now. Does anybody have a source for one, or has anybody ever converted his bike to another one?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bernard

Bernard - I'll check in the shop - might have one left over from the RS conversion I had.

gimme a day or so.

I'm not sure what the one for the S2's look like - anyone have a photo they could post?

Sure.
I will take one in the morning. Too dark now in the garage. Thanks!

Here's a photo of the rear master cylinder:





I would gladly pay a generous price for one, if that gets me on the road again!

Found a similar one -
I pm'd you so I can email you the photo.
It's to big to attach and I'm too ignorant to figure out how to re-size it with the photo software I have.

I'll send it to you and you can see if it works or not - I don't know if it is functional or not, but I think it was OK when it was on the RS I had.

Cover shipping and it's yours.

What's the center-to-center on the mounting holes?

Hi Al,

please e-mail to Bernard@californiaclassix.com

Center to center on the two mounting bolts is pretty much 1-3/4 inches. I'll gladly pay you a fair price for the part. I am glad that you are willing to part with it, the least I can offer is to pay for it so that we both feel good about the whole thing.
