    1. He shipped my recent order of an XJ750J brake master cylinder rebuild kit extremely quickly.
    2. He new which kit i needed, despite my Haynes manual's drawings being wrong!
    3. I am very happy with the results and strongly recommend Chacal for your bike part needs.

    I rebuilt my master cylinder tonight and, voila. I have brakes!!
    Not bad, considering when i bought the bike a couple weeks ago, the piston was frozen solid full IN and stuck and the resevoir was empty, save this black, crystalized, gritty wet sludge. And one of the hoses was plugged solid. Blew them out, cleaned up the calipers, reattached everything and bled the new fluid through and i got brakes!

    Another satisfied Chacal customer (who will probably be needing the carb rebuild kits soon,
    Christopher.

    PM "chacal" or send an email to info @ xj4ever.com (take the spaces out of the email address) he'll get right back to you. Very knowledgeable indeed, and has helped me many times over. (He keeps promising us a website...)
