I've got a problem with my front K24. It's started leaking fluid at the reservoir, through a hole that's on the inside of the clamp. Anyone got any ideas whats happened, do I need to replace a seal or is it something else? Has anyone stripped theirs and rebuilt?

    Enough to lift the paint on the clamp and make bleeding it impossible.....not sure if its the diaphram burst and needing replaced? I've never stripped brakes before, not sure if it's worth trying or source another master cylinder?

    My R1s weep a little. Also if the master cylinder does need replacing CRC have them i think.

    Found the cylinder body replacement from Winstanleys for £40 rather than the whole thing from CNC for £99.......now to work out how to swap stuff across...
