Here's the trick to this:
You have to make sure everything is totally clean and dry. So when you remove the diaphragm take it in the kitchen (or wherever) and wash it with plenty of water inside and out. Dry it thoroughly with a lint free rag. Do the same for the cover.
then back to the bike; carefully remove any signs of corrosion from the top lip of the reservoir then wipe this all round with a clean cloth, again to make sure it is totally clean and dry. Then you are ready to fit the cover. Make sure the diaphragm is collapsed flat and not extended and carefully put it into the m/c remember if any fluid gets up onto the seal you are back to step one. If you have filled the m/c anywhere above max this will become very hard to do. Next refit the cover and nip the screws down tight by hand (dont over cook em).
That's all there is to it. Since this method was detailed to me I have never had a leak, the same is true for others I have shown it to.
Good luck!
