Heyjude Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Help needed! The sight glass on my trusty Dragstar Custom needs replacing, but doesn't seem to be available without having to buy whole master cylinder. Second hand units are hard to come by and mostly seem to be available from the US as V-Star version. Can anyone tell me if this is a suitable replacement please? It's also been suggested that the oil sight glass could be used. This is available as a separate item to buy, again does anyone have any knowledge of whether this could be used? Thanks in advance Jude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Well to be honest I didn't know if these came as a separate item either but having looked it up on the net there seem to be hundreds of them for sale from 10 to 18mm in size, just type in what you want and "Roberts your fathers brother" as they say..! Found this https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/shopping?q=tbn:ANd9GcS2UqPe_4s4LNGNpYVnoATGp1l4O6t6VWsPxdsbd6jr4A7-at8aNVcTRJAsLQ1siA7ex1F6vhs&usqp=CAE And this https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=Front+Brake+Master+Cylinder+-1997+XVS+sight+glass&source=lnms&tbm=shop&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiopeG00r_dAhVVFMAKHfM2AXMQ_AUIDigB&biw=1920&bih=877#spd=4082561139258610062&spf=1537105038773 In about 2 minutes of looking, I typed in "Front Brake Master Cylinder -1997 XVS sight glass" give it a try and see what comes up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
