    for now I have bought a repair kit and in the weekend I will install '
    I hope to keep it for a while.
    later they will get a new brembo pump.

    bought from omcycle.com
    it looks strange but the price is lower than in italy

    Some folks have had success having the imperfect bore re-sleeved. I won't kid you- I'm not totally sure what all that entails. I'd imagine it's just that: having it drilled/bored out and then installing a sleeve with the inner diameter that's stock or close to the stock I.D., so it's set up for readily available rebuild kits.

    Mine only leaked once and I used the rebuild kit you're using. That was a very long time ago and I'm hoping my luck continues. I've got over 17K miles on my 630 now and I think my leak occurred when I had about 6K miles on the bike.

    Not that I could tell, although the overall finish did not look all that smooth. Given that mine has held up, since, I'm thinking it must be smooth enough (or I've just been lucky and the new internals have bedded in/sealed just right.)

    signs of wear on the black gasket are visible.
    the green gasket is perfect 20170922_182532.jpg 20170922_182509.jpg

    Your black gasket doesn't look too bad

    When I changed the "repair kit" I thought I had a spare at home... but it was not a new one but an old one... the one I changed from the TE 310 :rolleyes:

    Anyway I installed it and since then I have (makes sense) a tiny leak. Not a big deal... I clean it and that's it :)

    But you're right, magura is not a quality product... at least with the ones that sold to husqvarna
