Review on Motion Pro 08-0279 Master Cylinder Snap Ring Plier: Efficient Tool for Master Cylinder Maintenance by Derek Cage

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for hand tools

I've read claims that you can put a snap ring back into a motorcycle master cylinder without a pair of picks. I definitely couldn't. I pulled the old one out with regular snap ring pliers, but I couldn't get the new one in. After about half an hour of trying, I gave up and ordered these. The new circlip fitted right away. NOTE: The photo is not correct. The pliers actually arrived: https://www.amazon.com/OTC-4870-Master-Cylinder-Snap-Ring/dp/B00R7OS1E4/ or this https://www.amazon.com/Pit-Posse-Motorradring/ dp/B004MZ7EI0/

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
