Hi,
This is my first post on Katriders.
My 1100 drove fine last year, for a few miles, until the battery went dead. I h replaced the alternator a couple weeks ago, which meant dropping the engine and removing the clutch release (slave) cylinder. The voltage is fine now, but the clutch will no longer release.
I drained the fluid, cleaned and inspected both master and slave cylinders, replaced the pushrod, bushing and dust sea lon the master, reused the piston on the slave, filled it with Valvoline synthetic DOT 3&4 brake fluid, bled the system, but I only get about 1mm of travel from the piston. I can't "pump it up". When it is mounted on the bike, there is no resistance to the lever being pulled.
I ask, what might be the problem?
Also, does anyone know the spec for the release spring tension? I can only find the spec for the length.
Thanks!
