roadawg Posted April 4, 2012 #1 Posted April 4, 2012 tried to remove the bolt in the rear brake resevior and snapped a big chunk of the casing off, can it be repaired or does it need replaced, white metal.

If you are in a hurry ... The cover does little more than hold a gasket in place and you could do a temporary repair with JB Weld. It's not under pressure, it's just a cap for a reservoir. In the meantime you really need to order a new cover, or source a decent second hand one. If I read that wrong and the actual reservoir is broken, then you need to replace it rather than try a repair. just my 2c
PBJ Posted April 4, 2012 #3 Posted April 4, 2012 Jayceefolly broke two of those. he said its best to brace the "neck" with an adjustable crescent as you easy the cap lose. Of course for you now its too late. Ask a member with a parts bike if he has one. i just sold the one off my 85 to Jaycee.
lwinders Posted April 4, 2012 #4 Posted April 4, 2012 I just did the same thing a few days ago. I'm looking for one too.
