Come on lads hes suffered enough..Im not sure of this because I havent got a front disc set up..BUT ive had plenty on bikes and from memory isnt there a o ring seal type object inside where the lever is...from memory again it might be the front brake light switch if these have them which it shrouds and if this is correct it might have perished or split from some reason.and its prob the problem oggy..

and by the way if brake fluid has spilt on your togs bud there knackered as its highly corrosive...Just watch ye nads..

all oil can cause serious skin problems, brake fluid removes the natural oils from your skin. this may cause dermatitas, eczema, oil achne, and if the contact is frequent or prolonged may cause skin cancer.
treat oil as a potential health hazard and try to keep contact with any oil to a minimum.
Well that set a happy tone. can you tell I have H+S qualifications

I think that could be a good look, and you would never catch your nails on your birds stockings
