I have searched thru just about every topic on the forum and haven't found what I'm looking for.
I need a rear master cylinder for a 78 xs400 with disc brake. Is there a direct bolt in that will work? A rebuild kit from a local dealer is $97 USD. I'd like to see if there were a cheaper option that will bolt on without any modding or changing the entire braking system.
I also need the gauge cups for the speedo and tach.
When I hooked up the brake light(made a mount out of aluminum stock to get rid of the stock fender) it blows the 10 amp fuse. It was blowing the fuse before it put back on. Before it blows the fuse the brake light stays on like the brakes are being used. I checked the left and right control wires and none are cracked or in need of repair. When the front master cylinder was being put together I noticed a pin that controls the brake switch, it had a spring, black plastic bushing and a copper sleeve. When I assembled it I put the copper sleeve, then plastic piece and then the spring. Was that the proper order? It fell out before I could see how it was arranged when I took it apart.
Thanks in advance for any help.
