Thank you for the offer Tiedie! Let me see what I can scrounge together locally. My hope is that the rest of my master cylinder components are in good enough shape to be reused.
No problem. What ever you decide the brakes can be rebuilt all the way to the master to the calipers. Lines and splitter behind the dash.

I figured brand new at a fraction of the cost of used I had nothing to loose!

Thank you! The image of the screw against a ruler at the link you provided is likely enough for me to find the equivalent at the local hardware store.

I do appreciate it!

It's part # 222 here at Max. Either give them a call or call EME and they should be able to get 1 out to you. I don't think I can size it on the spare Master cylinder I have. I can look but it might take a bit to get back to you.

If you have the 295 pan, replace it. The 995 is what you want.

I still get a little smoke if left on the sidestand for a week. With a small wood (1/2" thick) under the stand, nothing. I fill to the upper mark.

BMW Technical Q&A, Primarily R65 / Magura 15mm Master Cylinder Reservoir Retaining Screw

Hello,

That small screw that retains the plastic reservoir body from the underside of the master cylinder is missing on the R65LS I just purchased. Does anyone know the correct screw dimensions? It isn't labeled on any of the parts fiches I've found.

I'm assuming something very short and course threaded.

Ok, so I may have caused the problem by overfilling oil.  Since that, when the oil level was lower, when I start it up I'm still getting the stalling and the oil leaking.  Ideas on what else may be going on?

This bike has the cylinder air filter as opposed to the rectangular one, not sure I can start it up when things are apart, but I can try. Get a better idea of where the oil is coming from.
