<\\;P>\\;If the master cylinder was just leaking around the seal and wasn&rsquo;t defective, switch to the chrome cover and it will stop the problem. I&rsquo;ve had the leaking problem on the front and back MC&rsquo;s. Both times I bought the chrome cover with new gasket and it solved the problem. Sure it costs a little but it&rsquo;s not too bad and you don&rsquo;t have to fool with the dealer. Plus, you can fix it yourself in about 30 seconds.<\\;/P>\\;

Feel your pain, mine has been torn apart for two weeks now.
But at least I have only myself to blame.
I decided to get a custome paint job.
Seems they can't paint it while I ride it, go figure!

For the third time the bike is in the shop for at least a week. \\; I've had my RKC (07) for 1 year. \\; This time the front master cylinder went and it is going to take until Monday to get the part in if I'm lucky. \\; So far in one year I had the bike in to repair a leak twice. \\; After the run around the first time from the dealer I purchased the bike from I took it to another dealer who I am very happy with. \\; I just can't believe that they wouldn't stock a master cylinder or that I can't find a dealer in the area that would have one. \\; With the weather looking great for the rest of the week and the weekend I'm a bit miffed. \\; Now I will have to work on that honey-do list that has been growing for the past 2 months. \\;
Okay...I'm done. \\; Ride safe this week everyone. \\; I'll be looking at all of you going past me in envy.
