Abstract

The invention relates to an assembly including a pressure medium reservoir and a manually actuable master cylinder, in particular for a hydraulic motorcycle brake system, wherein the pressure medium reservoir is connected permanently to the master cylinder by at least one pressure medium connection, wherein the master cylinder has at least one pressure chamber, which can be connected to wheel brakes. According to the invention, provision is made for a protection device to be arranged in the region of the pressure medium connection, the device preventing air from penetrating into the pressure chamber and allowing air to escape in the direction of the pressure medium reservoir.
