Front Master Cylinder was created by grumpy56

Have a front master cylinder that leaks and need to find a replacement. Anyone know of where a new one can be found or a replacement that will work on my KZ1000J? Thank you.

Forgive me for being Captain Obvious, but from where is it leaking? If it is around the plunger a simple rebuild kit from K&L should clean it up.

Good question, you would have thought I would have mentioned it!!!!! It is leaking around the top cover. This is the second time in about 2 years. Cleaned it off real good yesterday, lots of white residue on the sealing surface. Don't know if that will help though.
