clutch ????
hi all
all you lot with hydrulic clutch,
what have you used?
i have a zx9r b
and tried loads of ways, next thing is to have the bike clutch master in the car
the use of the clutch is not too much of a prob as i have a flat shift and push button change,
just need some sort of clutch for trafic etc
any options would be great
cheers paul

I fitted the original bike lever, reservoir and master cylinder in the engine bay. Then ran a cable to the pedal. SVA passed at Newcastle and action
is smooth and easy to use, not a switch like some. Can post a photo if you like?
Which flat shifter are you using? Is on my list of mods for the summer.

I was pondering using the rear brake pedal off the bike as a clutch pedal.
Anyone done this?

What i had was also some crap with the hydroclutch
it was a pain in the ar*** to get the air out.
I also tried with a rearbrake cilinder (2 types) and 1 master wich on the begining didn´t work to.
Then i managed to get all the air out and the feeling / pressure rised.
When i now use the clutch i can see in the hoses a small amount of expansion...
Sow i think its just a question of deair...the system until the last bloudy bublle...
Tks

Can you get the slave cylinder higher than the master? We had a trail bike front brake that wouldn't bleed till the caliper was raised way up
for the bubbles to rise on their own.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

told you it was the bleeding!!
In my case i just played an bit with the Hydro hose and instead of moving the puller in the pull direction, i discovered that i saw bubles coming in
the resvoir when pulling it away a bit for lets say 20 times..(it has a bit of play in that direction)
until 2 small bubles came out and in no time i had pressure..strange feeling eeehhh..
if you pull you feel the liquid doing its job..

Hi there
I've got a ZX9R B type as well.
I initially tested a landrover master cylinder but the cylinder was too large.
I have usde the master cylinder off the bike, taken the lever off and used a connecting rod from the master cylinder to the pedal and welded up a
bracket to hold the bike cylinder on to the bulkhead, can take some pics if you like?
Cheers
Ian
