R1200S Front Brake Master Cylinder Leak

Has anyone had their Front Brake Master Cylinder Leak from a routine fluid change?

On completion I found brake fluid beneath the master cylinder on a protective plastic sheet I put there in case of spills. I wiped all around the MC & lever thoroughly with a bit of soapy water & dried it, but could not get any to expel just with firm lever action. Took it for a short ride while monitoring it. All worked perfect & could not produce any leaks. Feel like i'm dealing with a magic show!!

I get the impression from realOEM that the MC is not serviceable on the R12S (mine has ABS) & is sold as a whole unit with the lever (eg. E$260) ??
