    In this video we demonstrate how to extract a stripped out screw from a dirt bike master cylinder. There are a couple ways of doing this by using either a dremel tool with the help of an impact driver or by using an extractor tool. Add some style to your bike with a Tusk reservoir cap in the process. They are CNC machined from lightweight 6061-T6 aluminum for a perfect fit to replace your stock reservoir cap. Reservoir caps are anodized for corrosion resistance and to give your bike that factory look.

    I looked this up like "no one's going to have a video on this", lo and behold, Rocky Mountain has the best oem part prices and tutorials so I could replace these without stress

    I literally stripped my magnetic oil fastener, then broke a screw off inside the frame for my skid plate requiring a drill and tap, then turned around a day later and stripped my brake master cylinder fastener. oh and in between all that, both my bumper carrier titanium bolts stripped. What a week. Thanks for the video!

    Omg thank you so much, YOU ROCK!!! Success!!!

  • @itsalwaysfunnyinphiladelph8885

    Buying a set of JIS bits for your impact, massively reduces the risk of mangling the screwheads as they're not designed to cam out like Phillips are.

    Speedout, always works. Under $20 no fuss, no muss. Easier than all of other methods with no damage to the cap or housing.

    You can chisel a new slot in it and its very easy and relatively risk free

    What about a “how to bleed the air out of or burp the cooling system” video? Could be a good one, 5 million views guaranteed! Haha

    How do I get one out that’s the back break that snapped in half inside

  • @cyclingzero2353

    10 mins into servicing my quad for the first time I spend 15 mins looking for my reverse bits as both screws are seized
    second one I had to break as bit just couldnt bite
    25 mins later im off to the store for new screws :P
    Pretty fun so far.... 2 hours later and I have 1 wheel and brake caliper off

  • @randpkandprgpearce5523

    I have a honda shadow where there are allen bolts (hex) which have a round head and I need to remove by allen (hex) turns inside the hex slot. No way of heating it. Cant get any tool in there - any idea please?

    Another method is drill a hole in the center the size of the shank of the screw. Don't drill deep, just deep enough so that you go to the bottom of the taper. Then the head of the screw will pop off with the master cylinder cover. Done carefully you can prevent damage to the cap as well. Plenty of good methods here though.

    I always use a slightly worn Dremel cut-off wheel as the smaller diameter gets a deeper cleaner cut into the head of the screw without damaging the cap too much. More screw and less cap get's a deeper cut for that screw driver, and most times I use the 1/4 breaker bar with the 1/4" socket fitting the 1/4" Allen 'standard' screw driver attachment into it. It's best to let WD-40 settle around the screw head first for a while if you have the time. Take your time and don't be in a rush and you'll be successful.

    My Allen screw was previously stripped.I have no impact wrench or Dremel tool.Any suggestions.Thanks

    Would a battery operated impact driver work as opposed to a hand driver? Not a full on impact gun, but the lighter style.

    The screw that holds the seat down is stripped, its in an awkward position, is there any good options to remove it?

  • @JeffJeno1000

    Use anti seize on reinstall, and softly tighten, they don’t need to be tight!

  • @tyrssen1
    @tyrssen1 Před 3 lety

    "Perfect time" for me as well. I was given a little Honda Rebel; whatever idiot owned this previously, cranked EVERYTHING down King-Kong tight. Ladies an' gents, there is NO EXCUSE for having a master cylinder cap that needs an impact driver to remove it.

    Any other choices then the stupid Phillips head screws?

    I wish I found this earlier before further ruining mine.

  • @latestplague3762
    @latestplague3762 Před 2 lety

    I'd try to drill it enough to remove the pan head first. Then the cap can slide off the screw and it can be removed with vice grips. At least that's what I'd do before dremeling a slot and messing up the cap.

  • @josephwells7260

    do you have to bleed your brakes if you change the cover?

    • @rmatvmc

      Good question. No you do not.

    • @Mitchs

      No unless you pump the brakes and get air in the system...

    I was really worried I'd have to drill out the screws on the reservoir for my '88 KZ1000, but some penetrating oil and a screw driver with the proper size made it a lot easier...
    Always use the right sized screwdriver to minimize the chances of stripping the head.
