By the way,
this is the first time I’ve removed the V-MAX head cover. <\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

I’ll search online for it anyway.
“V-MAX head cover” <\/a>

Looking at the images, it seems like a pretty high bar?
Taking off the carburetor too…
Seriously?
I gave it a shot anyway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hey there! <\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

Remove the radiator,
disconnect the servo motor wire, and the head cover comes right off.

Actually, there’s plenty of space.
I wonder if it varies by model year…
Anyway, I’m glad it worked out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

even a four-wheel cap works fine.

Replace the brake master.
Replacing it is
faster, cheaper, and better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Drain the fluid from the tank completely.

When you buy a brake master,
it comes with
a plug like this.
Keep it\u2014it’s useful for all sorts of things! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Wrap it with a rag and hold it temporarily.
Since it’s at the highest point,
it won’t leak more than necessary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Replace the master, fill the fluid, and
“vacuum bleed.”

By the way,
don’t use a “vacuum pump.”
Vacuum pumps tend to take in
some of what they suck up internally.
If it sucks up brake fluid,

the pump’s rubber seals will likely fail.
