Hi all, I have a bizarre problem with the front master cylinder/reservoir on my 1982 GSX750SZ (Katana).
There's a...well, hole in the bottom of the assy, cast into the cylindrical part that houses the cup set. It's definitely supposed to be there, as it's clearly cast into the part. Except that, of course, when I fill it with brake fluid the fluid gushes out of the hole.
Now, it used to work just fine (well not fine, hence the rebuild, but work, at least), until I took it apart to rebuild it. I must be doing something wrong. I've tried two different rebuild kits, because I thought the problem was the first 'pattern' kit I used, but the OEM parts do not rectify the problem. I have some other GS stuff lying about, and none of them have this hole.
I really don't know what to do. Suggestions welcome!

There are two grooves, one for the circlip and one for the rubber bootie. I was trying to place the circlip in the bootie clip.
