davet Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 Eh op where is the best place to purchase a braketec front master cylinder for my 2014 racing 250 . Thinking the one on eBay at £88 is a bit steep . Do you know any cheaper . Thanks Dave . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huski Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 I'd look for a second hand AJP,Braketec quality seems variable 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lineaway Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 They need to include a half dozen with every new bike. 3 for the front 3 for the back. If we have to suffer with this crap, the manufactures should be up front about this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zuendapp Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 My suggestion is to purchase AJP small reservoir master cylinder. I have seen a Pro's bike have a Nissin front brake master cylinder? I do have a GasGas 2014 Race and switched both Master cylinders to the AJP small reservoir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 So we,re all in the same boat.....you would think as line away suggests they would Bing a few in for the sake of their reputation.....maybe the new gas gas owners will take on board some of these niggling criticisms and for sake of a few centimes do something about it. What I was hopeing to find was somebody like Ivan Manning ( a guy who specialzed in seals of all types and loved hiss trials)...Ho hum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bilc0 Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 I'd look for a second hand AJP,Braketec quality seems variable Unfortunately Everything from Braketec seems suspect quality. Changed the caliper piston seals with Braketec every seal leaked, managed to find some original AJP seals no leaks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cascao Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 It's a bit step buy a complete kit when master seal worn every year... Someone knows if i can borrow a master cylinder seal from another motorcycle to use in my braktec master? Or some kind of o ring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
