i have rebuilt many mc and brake cyl. nowadays the rebuilt items seem pretty reasonable.

but i remember the days when i had to save up for a $20 part, and i once drove for several months with no muffler on my 62 fintail with an exhause system with about ten pieces of scrap pipe from my dad's garage corner and nine clamps. if you watched your shift points it wasnt too loud and at highway speeds at 60 it was unbearable but at 70 was downright quiet!
