    If it is an Accutronix master cylinder it will have the name engraved on the lid. Keep in mind you need to remove the rear caliper and turn it so the bleeder is at the top. If you try to bleed the system with the caliper on the bike it will trap air in the caliper. Also, do not use Bel-Ray brake fluid. Bel-Ray dot 5 has something in it that causes the rubber parts in the master cylinder to swell and stick which in turn keeps the rear caliper compressed all the time. Not a good thing. I recommend Maxima dot 5 which can be ordered through Drag Specialties under part# 81908.
