Re: Repeat M/C leak from reservoir lid

Check and make sure none of the brake lines that run to the rear brakes are close to the exhaust pipes or mufflers. Excessive heat can make the brake fluid expand and force it out of the master cylinder. If you find any spots that are suspect and you can't re-route them split a piece of rubber hose and put over the brake line and see if that helps. A loose fit is better than a tight fit on the hose.
