Default Front master cylinder

Hi guys,


Like almost everyone, my front master cylinder started to leak at the cover on my 2014 Street Bob... I was away from home and can only clean it a few days after.
Now the paint started to bubble and looks like ****...


I looked at parts numbers on St Charles HD, and it seems that there is a new master cylinder and cover on 2015 models. Is it right ?


Thanks !

My Low Rider had the same issue...the dealer replaced the cover and seal with the new style cover/seal under warranty, with no money out of my pocket.

So far, no more leaking, all is good.

Check with your dealer and have it replaced under warranty.

Pull it off and have powder coated. Even with replacement, it seems most leak down the road.
