Cali1400 Front brake Master Cylinder???

[DougG]

Hi all,                                                                        4-30-22

I got on my 2017 Cali 1400 last week for a ride and the front brake lever felt soft.  I bled the brakes, but no air come out...only fluid.  When I looked at it closer, I noticed that each time I squeezed the brake lever there was a "squishing" sound.  I never noticed that before.  I'm guessing that the front brake master cylinder is failing?  Any thoughts?  AND if it needs to be re-built, where can I get the part?  I've looked on line and there are various sizes for the Brembo master cylinder.  Which is mine? 

Thanks, and be well,
DougG

I think there was a recall on them at one point.

I have a 2017 rig and mine was, I believe, replaced
under warranty before I owned it.

My 2017 MGX had a recall on the front Master Cylinder also.
Might be the same one, something that you might want to look into. 👍🏻

Thanks Stretch and Biker.                                                                                     5-2-22

I remember the recall now.  After looking at several possible solutions, I came across the fact that there was an upgrade front master brake cylinder available (P/N 2B006111).  Rather than keep spinning in circles...rebuild kit for older model, nearest dealership almost three hours away, etc., I decided to buy the upgraded cylinder and replace it myself.  It should be here in a few days.  I'll keep you posted.  Thanks again for your replies. 

Be well, stay well,

I was gonna send you the part number, but you think I can lay hands on the receipt?!

Of course not........ 

Glad you found it - should be an easy fix.
