LC sight glass replacement? the plastic clip in type.

[JonW]

I know very well you can buy press fit 18mm 'glass' for the later Master cyls, but does anyone have a plan for the plastic clip in type for the LC?

I did find this Brembo unit as fitted to Ducatis and KTMs it seems. The dims are ok, tho the LC's flange is almost 16mm, not 14 like this unit...

So... Ive fitted one of these and its 'ok' using the LC's fatter o ring, but ive yet to see if it will hold fluid. It does feel tight so Im hopeful.

So what has anyone else used? or does anyone have an old one thats good enough to reuse?

Jon I have re-used the LC clip in type M\C glass many times never replaced any seals and never had leaks from it I have had more issues with the lids even with a new rubber seal fitted

LOL Ive just rebuilt this one Steve, huge amount of work to redo... Im not chucking it away!

With the KTM Brembo glass fitted:


Yeah the rubber needed a good clean, I really hope it doesnt leak Colin :/

Has anyone found a press fit glass in 16mm for these, I guess you could use a watch glass, but you also need something like the steel ring as well... hmm...
