Master Cylinder Rebuild How To

Posted by on 12/2/2013

We are working our way through the brake system, hope you enjoyed the Master Cylinder Dissembly video. Here is the second half. Our master cylinder has been glass bead blasted and honed; it's now ready to go back together with a master cylinder rebuild kit. This same master cylinder is found out many other mid 70's Honda motorcycles including the CB360T, CB350G, CB400F, CB450 K3-K7, CB500T, CB500K0 and CB550.  The master cylinder is the first part of the brake system that should be rebuilt and a working master cylinder can be used to take apart the caliper to be rebuilt (we have a video in the works for that too).

These videos are made to help all you DIY mechanics out there and we want to continue to make them better.  Your feedback is very important to help us improve. Got an idea for a video? Send us a message using the
