brake dilemma...
« on: June 10, 2015, 08:24:05 PM »
Hello all

Something isn't working in my front braking system. Quick question, if I need to replace the caliper and master cylinder, should I buy a new one or should I rebuild it?

If you're the DIY type I go for it.

I'm assuming kits are cheaper?

When the master cylinder went on my people 250, I couldn't find a kit to rebuild it. I ended up buying a new one.

If it is old just get a new one, that way you can unbolt and bolt it back on.
