Vintage BMW Motorcycle Owners

Ran into a BMW owner who manufactures the u shaped feeler gauge to set the correct travel of the master cylinder piston for $15. Search for user piginajar on eBay to check it out. Here is his description from the item. This is the tool used to adjust the ATE master brake cylinder found under the tan...

Excellent. I’ll paint it. Damn the originality police!

Thanks

I’ve just received my master cylinder back from Apple Hydraulics after a resleeve. It looks pretty naked. I’m wondering if the master cylinder was originally painted? This is a 1976 R90s.

Thanks
Scott.

Thanks. I actually did move the bleeder and brake line so the bleeder is on top. It seemed logical to make the new caliper match the other side. I’ll update when I’ve finished.

Thanks John.
That is what I suspected, but now I’ll sleep better. I am having problems with the bleed. I’m going to use Indians suggestion from a while ago and push from the calipers up.

Can the bleeders and brake lines positions be swapped to maintain that configuration? I’m assuming they both connect to the same chamber?

Question on brake calipers on a 1976 R90s. Are the calipers specific to left or right sides? I made the assumption (I know what that means) that the calipers were not exclusive to left or right after rebuilding them. I’m having some bleeding issues so need verification on my assumption.
Thanks
Scott
