Clear Level Indicator Leaking - Brakes

[chancer]

Hi,

Just a simple question - the clear level indicator/eye on the front master brake reservoir is leaking around the rim on a Yamaha Zeal I have. Is there a type of glue or sealant that would work in this situation (like isn't affected by brake fluid, etc.) or any other home brew tips?

Cheers.

It's pressed in and a new one is like $350. Hence looking for other solutions ha ha.

Buy a used/new master cylinder off Ebay mate, you can buy em off anything really, anything prob be better than your standard Zeal one.. banjo's are easy to come by either 10x1.0 or 10x1.25 for like $10..

Here's some other yammy ones..

You should be able to buy a new sight glass from Yamaha, push the old one out and fit the new one.
