    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

The MC on my bike is not a GS850 original. It looks like a Yamaha MC. I need a new diaphram for it due to the old one being swollen up. The MC looks beat up but works great.

The dealer no longer can get one and bike bandit does not sell the MC either. So I am left with finding out which MC this one is so I can get a diaphram for it.

on the oposite site is 5/8
 
Master cylinders don't have diaphrams. Are you talking about new piston seals? At any rate I'm not sure what that thing is off of so sorry, can't help.
 
The metal coverd ones do, its a thin sheet of rubber that seals in the brake fluid and still allows for pressure changes.
 
Funny, it looks just like the one on the '81 1000G I am working on, but I looked it up in the fiche and it did not match. :-k

OK, a little more searching and I found that the two-screw lid started in 1982 on most models.
The part number for the diaphragm is 69667-49300, it is a whopping $5.10 at Babbitts, might be less at other places.

A reverse search on the part number shows that it showed up in '81 on some of the L and T models,
then appeared in '82 thru '85 on virtually ALL models from 450 thru 1150.

Apparently, the '81 1000 I am working on might be one of the last ones, and it got one of the '82 master cylinders. :o
