Help with brake master leaking
Hey have any of you had any problems with the front brake master cylinder leaking? The second week I had my bike I noticed that a spray of brake fluid was on the bottom of my wind screen. Thought the dealer did it when doing the safety check when I bought it. That was back in June. Just last week I noticed that brake fluid sprayed on my new windscreen, on the upper fearing, and the black plastic cover, way worse than befor. Now my paint on the fearing is bubbled up, and there is etch marks on the new wind screen and black plastic. I have never opened or even messed with the master cylinder reservoir. I have no clue where the fluid came from, and the brakes work fine. Im thinking about taking it back to the stealer and asking if its under warranty. What do you think?
Man I have all kinds of bad luck with my bike lately. first something falls on it cracking the upper fearing and cracking it. Now brake fluid all over the place leaving etch marks and bubbling up the paint.
Good news is the pipe and PCIII is on the way.

RE: Help with brake master leaking
Well just got my bike back from the dealer today. they fixed it under warranty. it turned out they did not tighten up the banjo bolt on the front master cylinder. The brake fluid ended up leaking all over the place. So the service manager is going to try to warranty out my upper fearing, wind screen and the black cover under the master cyl. If he gets all three pieces replaced I will be stoked. The upper fearing is the part that got cracked last week (different post). I probably should not get my hopes up though. It seems like there is always a loop hole to why the can not replace everything, but here’s hoping.
