    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.

My brother an i refused to pay 125.00 for a new yammy master cylinder just because of a clouded sight glass.
I took photos of the whole operation and have the them in an album on JBs website. this should work on a clutch cover also since JB weld seems to like aluminum and plastics.
 
I did something similar, and just did away with the window and filled the hole with QuickSteel epoxie puddy

You belong with my brother JB he would rather polish things than use them. He just finished a Suzuki Samurai. His virago is still getting the treatment and he is already scheming a Little plastic something or other that has the engine in the rear.
 
I had to change out a damaged engine cover on my ZRX and forgot to purchase a sightglass. Broke the one on the original cover and couldnt use it. Took it down to dealer and had them overnight me one and had them put it in. cost me $35 bucks for the service but worth it not to hassle with it.
