Greetings,
I've installed a new slave cylinder in a 2001 R1100S after completing a spline lube & friction disk upgrade. Bleeding the clutch has been very difficult, I've gone through a full litre of fluid. I'm using a standard bleeder screw in the discharge line & following the usual steps.
Finally there no bubbles showing but the clutch still feels soft. Also, I'm not able to move friction disk through the started hole with the clutch lever pulled as I could with the old setup. I'm concerned that the clutch will drag.
Is this typical? Is there a better way to bleed a dry slave cylinder?
Any ideas are appreciated,
Thanks, Charles
