Unless you lost some bits, or the seal is farked from being exposed whilst the piston was out (maybe it dried out or something, im not sure, Its prob alright tho.) You should be able to pop the piston back in, then rebleed. Personally I would flush it out with a bit of fluid, coz u probably got crap in there.

edit- make sure u clean it all really well, and rub some fluid on all the internals that were exposed before you push it in (and after you cleaned them). But basically it should be quite easy to just pop it back in, bleed it, and it should be right. And that also seems a little dodgy, doesn't it have a lever stopper or something preventing the thing from over extending and popping the piston out?

He's talking about the piston in the master cylinder here Vit, not in the calliper..
I think some shit would have to have been fucked up for the piston to be pulled out of the mc.

Edit: oops.. look like you were talkin about the MC..
carry on.
