In the process of replacing the brakes on my 190xt. While cleaning the brake facing in the brake housing I see there is a small crack. It's about 3/4 inch long going from the center towards outside of housing. Should I look for a replacement housing? Opinions? Thanks John

There are thousands of them running with more cracks than that.

If you drill a small hole at the end of the crack, it won't get any worse...
