1 Front master cylinder questions... Thu Mar 22, 2012 3:18 am

The front brake m/c on my '92-ABS is leaky... holds pressure for a few days but then gets spongy and eventually is completely empty, with a dribble down the side of my radiator. And that's just with the bike parked!
Looks like it's coming from the plunger area (that gets pushed in when one squeezes the brake lever).
Questions are:
1) How in the heck do I separate the m/c from the throttle assembly.
2) How do I separate the brake lever, so I can more closely inspect the plunger/sleeve.
3) Is there any point? I've heard that once these go, it's just better to replace them. If that's the case, will any K100 m/c work or do I need to locate an ABS specific model?
Thanks!
