front brake reservoir

Had this bike since it was new, and the reservior just started leaking. I've pulled it apart, cleaned it, and inspected the gasket. Everything looks fine, but it's still leaking. It has never been changed, or had any fluid added to it.....fluid is still at factory level. Any ideas?

Replace the gasket.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; It may look good.&nbsp\\; But if it's leaking, it probably isn't.&nbsp\\;

Mine kept seeping around the edge. New gasket solved problem. Bike was only 1 year old.
