    I just changed the brake booster in my new brat. now when i add brake fluid to it, it leaks out where the resivoir connects to the master cylinder. does anyone know how to remove the resivoir, or any ideas on how to fix this?

    thanks

    ok, i will try and see if i can find some o rings for it :gulp:.

    any ideas how to get the resivoir off? in my hanes book it says to pry it off, but i cant really get any leverage on it. there must be some secret to it, cuase my pry bar didnt work very well.

    ^nay. it needs some more work. gotta do the gas tank and exhuast before it is really streetable. then theres another chunk of work before its ofroad worthy.
