Has anyone found a rebuild kit for an LX150 master cylinder (part # CM074904)? It appears they're manufactured by HENG TONG, but I'm having a hard time finding a rebuild kit. Seems silly to have to pay $100 for a whole new master cylinder and brake lever, when all it really needs are few bits of new rubber. Thanks!

Good luck. There was/is one for the original Grimeca part, but once Piaggio went to Heng Tong, they pretty much did away with it. Part of the reason for the price increase, compared to other OEM Vespa master cylinders, is that this one is used on fewer models, and as they get taken off the road with time, there is less demand for this particular part. So Piaggio orders less, which creates a higher cost per unit.
