It contains the plastic elbow fitting that joins the reservoir hose to the top of the master cylinder, a rubber seal, a retaining circlip and an O-ring. Easy Life Markets sells it as a universal-style repair kit for riders and workshops who need to replace a cracked, leaking or missing elbow on a rear brake or hydraulic clutch master cylinder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn many bikes, the rear brake master cylinder sits low on the frame and is fed by a small remote reservoir. The elbow fitting is the part that connects the two. Because it is plastic and sits close to the rider's foot and the road, it can crack from age, heat, or a knock, and a worn seal lets brake fluid seep out. When that happens, air can get into the system and the pedal starts to feel soft. Replacing the elbow and its seals is a cheap fix that restores a clean, sealed fluid feed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs shown in the dimension photo, the kit contains four pieces:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x plastic elbow fitting (angled hose connector)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x rubber seal \/ grommet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x retaining circlip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x O-ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe master cylinder, reservoir, hose and brake fluid are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Master cylinder reservoir elbow and seal kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eListed application:\u003c\/strong\u003e Direct push (push-rod) master cylinder with remote reservoir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic elbow, with rubber seals and a metal circlip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements shown in the product photo:\u003c\/strong\u003e elbow approx. 37 mm tall with a 7.7 mm hose spigot; seal approx. 24 mm outer diameter; circlip approx. 16 mm; O-ring approx. 14 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePieces:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e CJJT176016601AZ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements are taken from the supplier's dimension photo and are approximate, so please compare them with your own parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChecking Fitment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier describes this kit as universal, but master cylinders differ in the size of the reservoir inlet, the circlip groove and the hose diameter.

An old O-ring can harden and flatten even when the elbow looks fine, so fitting all four new pieces at once is the most reliable way to stop a seep coming back. The parts are inexpensive, and having the complete set means you do not have to take the joint apart twice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Quick Word on Brake Fluid\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost motorcycle brake and hydraulic clutch systems use glycol-based DOT fluid, while some use mineral oil. The rubber seals in a hydraulic system are made to suit one type, so always use the fluid printed on your reservoir cap or in your owner's manual, and never mix types.
