I didnt see you at the Tuesday meeting Geoff, would have been nice to say goodbye. I have plans this weekend, otherwise would have made the effort to go all the way over to that side of town!

Yeah sorry mate. Would have been nice but I had an oil leak to find before todays dyno tune (316rwkw on 0.9bar with more to chase later). I still have an engine to collect and build, fit and tune by Weds next week. Feel free to drop me a line if you are ever coming to Brissy (although you won't want to come back) as I'd love to catch up.

See you Sunday Kaz.

if you're from north and don't know where this joint is but show interest in coming, PM one of us. it's not really a meet where we admire cars etc, just a chance for everyone to catch up and have some food and a chat.

this place makes nice bacon and eggs as well

No worries mate, hope to be up in Brissy for work from time to time so will arrange something then. Best of luck :P

      Kittens in first to claim dominance of the residence, then puppies later From past experience, the other way around can be problematic to say the least  Those weird "Dobby looking"  little kittens are not cheap....LOL

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
