Rear master cylinder overhaul.

Post by Gerrit »

I checked the KR-1 shop manual and the KR-1S supplement, but neither contains instructions on how to strip and reassemble the rear brake master cylinder. Before I stuff things up, has anybody taken one apart? Any advice is appreciated!

the same as all master cylinders.
remove the rubber
take out the circlips and be carefull : if the cylinder is moving free, the spring willmake it jump out ;-)

Thanks for the info, Jan. I thought as much, but it's nice to see it confirmed.
