Well my wife is ready for me to get her scoot ready for spring. I need the front brake master cylinder. I had a discussion a year or so ago about finding parts to rebuild it, but that lead nowhere. I am just wondering if anything has changed? Has anyone found rebuild parts? If not where is the best place to get an exact replacement part. Some one has to sell it cheaper than Roketa!

[replyingto=quail]quail[/replyingto]well that was a plan  . The rear M/C uses a larger spool valve and the cups are larger also. It is a total shame we have never found a rebuild kit for these. |

 Ya, the problem with Roketa, is they just want to much, but also if you order only the mastercylinder, Roketa may cancel your order. That is what happened to me. I needed the 3 screws that attach the disk to the rim. Was around $7 for that. I ordered just the caliper and rear shoes for my MC-13-250.. I place order and a few days later, said order was cancelled. They obviously wanted to sell me all new brake part, verses a part hear and there. The bought shoes alone through Parts for Less.. It is stupid of Roketa claiming to sell individual parts and cancel an order.

Just the handle with the resevoir or the whole thing including the rear cailipers? Reason I ask is when I was looking for the other one I ran into a lot for the rears. Alleyoop |

[replyingto=quail]quail[/replyingto]well I got the rear brake assembly and found out the mounting bracket for the caliper is different than what I have. I was not a problem because the caliper was the same so I just swaped the mounting bracket. The other difference is the pads! My OEM pads has that funny tab on the pads backing plate that sticks out and rest against that caliper mount. The pads on this caliper had inner out outer pads that were the same. I can't see why they won't work just as well.
I almost have all the air blead out. I just installed the M/C and caliper. I was not going to tear it down just to replace a hose.
