[QUOTE="Mihylo33, post: 127807, member: 408"] After about a year of deciding I recently purchased a Magura hydraulic clutch. Brock at Powersport Junkies gave me a great deal and had it delivered to my door within 1 week as promised. It came pre bled and ready for install. [IMG]http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/mikeyk1on1/C7278BE8-01E0-4E61-95B4-823D18D9C12F-11153-00000C03DE5063D1_zps7d6e3b5d.jpg[/IMG] The 1st thing I noticed was that the box was open which always makes me nervous and then I realized Brock probably just dopened it to make sure that all the parts were there. 2nd I realized that it didnt come with an unbreakable/folding lever nor did it come with a container of Magura blood. There is no packing list within the box and the only I could find info wise is that everything else comes in different kits... bleeding kits , adapter kits etc etc.. The instructions were pretty straight forward and in about 30 mins my new Hydro clutch was installed and ready to rip, so I thought. Initial feel was fantastic... about 25% of what it was originally and way smoother feeling. I started the bike up let it run for a couple of minutes and clicked 1st gear. Released the clutch and......nothing....:foul: I quickly threw the bike back on the stand, yanked the flyweel cover and quickly realized there was no free play in the actuator. I released the actuator from the Magura piston and it returned to the fully engaged position. As it turns out the slave cylinder piston falls short about a 1/2" from a full engagement of the clutch. Just enough for it to sit there and roast some plates and not move at all. I called Magura USA but their motorcycle guy left for the day and I was left with a guy from the mountain bike division. He confirmed that I had the right part and that it sounded like everything was installed properly. He also said I really needed to speak to the motorcycle guy about it because he knows every trick.... well until tomorrow or a maybe even later on next week... we shall see.
