Not sure how I missed that its a 1977 rd400 in my post. I curse people like myself all the time....Dammit. I was having a few beers so I'll blame it on that. Got it out. Thanks for every ones help

How do I remove the front brake switch from the master cylinder assembly ? Don't wont to force it. I'm thinking it just pulls out?
Thanks

I know this is a long shot but would anyone have a rd400 broucher for sale ?

Any way of telling if the chain and sprockets on my 77 rd400 are original ?

Ya I seen Chucks post and made sure the small hole was clear but the master cylinder plunger is still very slow to return to its resting position. The master cylinder bore seems good but maybe try to clean with a green scratch pad ?

I installed the fj 1200-1100 rear master cylinder kit 2 years ago on my rd400 and have found that when the rear brake is applied the master cylinder shaft does not want to return to its resting position. I have disassembled the master cylinder and it is nice and clean. the return spring seems to be good. I applied some rubber friendly grease to the rubber seal and the shaft returns easily. Should i leave it at that or is there another issue perhaps the seal is swollen. Im using synthetic fluid.

Thanks

I seen that one. They want $49 for shipping to Canada. I was hoping i could find one somewhere the shipping wasn't so criminal. Thanks anyways.

Need to replace the Rear Brake reservoir Hose on my rd400 . what is everyone using ?

Thanks

Thanks again

Perfect, thanks for the quick reply ! By the way, what type of grease do you have on the seal ?

Getting ready to install rear master cylinder kit on my rd400. Does anyone know which way the tapered seal fits(not the one that fits on the spring but the other) ? Happy New Year

I've been doing that for 25 years that way...never had one fall out afterwards.  And still on my huge 50ml bottle.

Here's the spec sheet and the reason so expensive, $55 a big bottle.
