Was at 650motorcycles and noticed a few new postings where a hydraulic mater cylinder monted on the cluch cover and definately see an advantage when used with heavy duty clutch springs. Does anyone have any leading info on this conversion or any contacts?...........Jack

Jack you always seem to be a step ahead of me here, Ive been eyeballing a late model triumph tripple slave cylinder. This shouldn't be to hard to do with the adjuster hole already centered to the pushrod. Let you know how that works out.

I didnt say that Jack, I said eyeballing it the owner probably wont let me try it. But I was thinking about it just a couple days ago. In reality however I could use that money on REAL performance parts, like say HEADS.

I bought an extra side cover and a Honda VFR slave cylinder to do some experimenting. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.
