Say, this may have some benefit to the 1125 owners although I'm not sure if we use the same clutch slave cylinder! I just stripped the slave and it is a doddle! Sure enough a dark ring was present in the cylinder so I honed it out with my finger and 1000 wet n' dry paper. With no effort all was cleaned up and smooth as silk. The rubber seal has a fair lip on it and so I decided to rebuild. Put some rubber grease on it and reassembled. Just bled it all and pumped the clutch a fair bit. Now if that big black cloud in the west buggers off I can road test ![]() N. |
