    81 GS850G Front MC cleaning question

    I am wanting to thoroughly clean my front Master Cylinder. I have the 4 screws out and it looks like I can just pull the reservoir up off of the body. Only held in there with that O-Ring and the 4 screws that hold the cap? I think that's it but want to confirm before I put lifting pressure on the plastic reservoir.
    Thanks

    Is it the same as this one?

    If so, yes, it's just the O-ring holding it in.

      Yes, it's just the o-ring that holds it together. You will swear there is more, but there's not.

      Apply your prying pressure as close as possible to the o-ring.
      If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space.
