Ducati clutch fluid flush and bleed and lever freeplay discussion for radial master cylinders. 

It warms my heart to see this. So many XX98'S have brown clutch fluid.

Hi Brad. I just swap my levers for a similar black ones. I feel the shifting to be too harsh. I tried to copy the length of the adjustable travel but I think I'm missing something. I will try to adjust it by your "liquid level method". Thanks for the explanation.

Thanks again, Brad. Was just about to do a clutch bleed on my 999. Have learned so much from your videos.

Great video - sorted my spongy clutch lever thanks to this.

thanks!

was für ein entlüftungsnippel hast du eingebaut ? ich will mein behälter auch auf extern umbauen

now i have to check mine lol

Hello, My clutch after holding it pressed, starts to slowly lose pressure in about 5 seconds and engages slowly, at that point neutral is impossible to find. Each time this happens, when I kill the engine on the button and release the pressure from the clutch lever, it feels like nothing is pulling it back to its original position. I inspected the bike for leaks, even at the slave, there was way too little at slave to justify this behavior however, I ordered a new slave to remove any leak. I noticed later that the fluid level on the reservoir is slowly increasing when I hold the clutch under pressure and then it decreases pretty visibly when I release the lever. Will a master rebuild fix my issue? have you ever experienced something like this? I looked over the diagram and it seems that the first seal from the piston is the one that failed in my case or is there a one-way valve in this system? Thank you!
