Brake Master Cylinder Reassembly
NOTE:
  • Clean all parts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passages with compressed air.
  • Before reassembling, check that all the parts are free of dirt and other foreign particles.
  • Replace parts with new ones whenever specified to do so.
  • Use only genuine DOT 3 or DOT 4 Honda Brake Fluid. Non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion and shorten the life of the system.
  • Replace the master cylinder if the bore is damaged or worn. Do not hone or attempt to refinish the bore.
  • Coat the piston cups, pressure cup and master cylinder bore with clean brake fluid.
  • Use recommended greases in the master cylinder seal set.
  • When you apply the silicone grease, make sure not to adhere to the terminal part of connectors and surrounding switches. Also do not touch the switches and the terminal part of connector by hands or glove that adheres the silicone grease.
