    OR..... This is what I did. It's still quality Japanese components that you can find parts for....

    I went on Ebay, I think I got the chinese knock off master cylinders for the cr80. ordered a chain, petcock and have a few other parts on my wish list. Probably order a seat cover too. jim

    I tried one of those Chinese front maters on my AutoX. I didn't like it. I could see it flex right by the mount. It worked fine, but it had no feel at the lever. Just mushy all the way through the lever pull. I bled it out several times and that didn't help. I needed a rear caliper so I found a CR85 front master, caliper, and brake line all still hooked together on Ebay for about $50. I pulled it out of the box and I could see the piston in the caliper moving as I gently pulled the lever. Caliper on the rear, master on the front, bled both one time and it all works great. The caliper even had more material on the pads than the ones that I already had, so i didn't even have to put new pads on. now it also has great feel at the front lever too. No more Chinese crap for me!

    just went out and messed with the trike a few minutes ago and got the front master unstuck on one of the trikes. going to top the master off tomorrow and see if I get brakes.

    well the spring in the original master must be toast. the plunger doesnt return. the China masters showed up last night and was a direct bolt on
    now I've got front brakes on both trikes. waiting for the rear master today for the one trike. jim

    Jim, mine was stuck, also. After a soak, it freed right up. Of course, I wouldn’t have known the condition of it without disassembling.
