FJ12SP Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 What bike ? If it,s a hydraulic clutch and it,s leaking around the clutch housing it,s probably the slave seals shot. Adam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FJ12SP Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Yes it's deffo the clutch slave seals, very easy to replace. Once you have removed the clutch slave housing pump out the slave and remove seals, give it a good clean up with a scotchbrite pad and fit new seals. The hardest part is bleeding the system once replaced. have alook here http://www.yamahaxjrownersclub.com/phpBB3/index.php There are pics on how to do it on this site. Adam.

yoda Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Try to find or make a pressure bleed kit. This will help you bleed all hydraulics easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
