    Hi,
    Here is a feedback about rebuilding my Sprint ST 1050 master cylinder.
    I purchased a Nissin rebuild kit for around 25 euros.
    1- bleed to empty the MC
    2- remove the MC from the bike (Very easy)
    3- remove the lever
    4- remove the clip. that's the guess work, moreover without the special plier. To remove the clip, the piston need to be held pushed. With some patience it's not impossible. If I have to do it again, I will purchase the correct clip remover plier.
    5-clean the MC, with fresh dot "oil" the new piston.
    6-put everything together.

    I took advantage of that work to try those Stahlbus bleeding valve.
    It's basically a caliper bleeding valve with a built in pressure valve.
    It's a bit pricey (25 euro each), but very efficient.
    Unscrew 1/2 turn, put your waste tube on.
    Press the lever and you don't need to take care of the bleeder.
    It makes brakes bleeding so easy.
