Master Cylinder Reservoir
Looks like my front master cylinder reservoir on my 79 is weeping. Manual shows an o-ring which I assume needs to be replaced. Took out the 4 screws retaining the cover but can't seem to get the reservoir to come out - it'll rotate but that's all the movement I get. I'm reluctant to pry on it. Is there something besides an o-ring retaining it? Thanks again.

Yeah it will come out and all the parts are still available from Honda and not unreasonbly priced.Just get a screwdriver and start prying,first get the parts from Honda,just in case I'm wrong because I completely redid my master cylinder on my 79 in 1999 after it leaked brake fluid onto my tank.Brake fluid is very good paint remover and I would suggest the silicone type brake fluid,doesn't hurt paint if your rebuild doesnt take.My rebuild didnt cause the bore was coroded and I wound up geting a salvage item off a 750f
