Not sure if you're still reading comments, but Oberon referred me to this vid as I was having troubles bleeding all the air out of the Oberon on my SDR, Just wanted to say your method worked perfectly and I greatly appreciate the quality of this vid. EDIT: Unfortunately, shortly after I posted this comment I had ongoing issues with excessive free play and narrow clutch friction zone. Multiple bleeds failed to resolve it. I ended up returning the unit for a refund.

@MackieBass 2 года назад

You serious? Oberon sent you to my video? That's inanse...well, I'm glad it helped!

I just replace my factory 2015 KTM Super Duke 1290 R clutch slave cylinder with the Oberon unit and their billet spacer. I inspected mine and found it to have the identical crack around plunger nipple. Replacing it was a breeze because of your video, much appreciated! Your little trick to bleed the slave cylinder saves a lot of time. I however did not reverse bleed the clutch line. Just filled it from the top and bleed the clutch lever from the top. Super easy to do, it took very little fluid. Test ride, it's all good. Clutch engages right away with very little take up. Action was smooth and a little easier to pull then stock. I will bleed the clutch lever again in a day or so just to make sure there aren't any air bubbles trapped in the line.

Good man. Thanks for the feedback and glad it helped!

The same thing happened to me on my 2022 1290R Superduke Evo, it left my Wife & I stranded on the side of the road. My bikes been in the shop almost 4wks waiting for KTM to get the part to my dealer. Thanks to your video I'm going to order the Oberon and get it to my dealer, we'll discuss reimbursement for the stock piece of garbage later.

2022 and had a problem already? Not great... I have to say, the more I think about it the more issues I hear with KTMs. I love the bikes, but they do have some issues.

Thanks MackieBass, You're a star! I don't normally do my own mechanics but I have a ride out booked for tomorrow and my local workshop couldn't fit me in until next week. I wouldn't have taken this on without your excellent tutorial. But with your help I've done a super job. In celebration, I rode over to my mechanic and cancelled the job for next week. He was super impressed with my work. I'm looking forward to my ride tomorrow, I hope you enjoy the beer! 😃 🍺 Joanna x

Well done my friend, so many people overhype bleeding their KTM slave cylinders by reverse bleeding with 2 syringes and overcomplicate what is essentialy a simple job. as you have done the conventional way and with a tube, little oil and in my case a 9mm spanner can be done at the side of the road A++++++

Great hearing you say that. I'm struggling with refilling a front brake after a caliper swap. Haven't got access to a vacuum bleeder. Just on a whim, I went to the pharmacy, bought myself a large syringe, to try backfilling. Haven't tried yet, but sounds like it can be done. Not having the right tools sucks.

@themtbob515 4 года назад

Cheers Mackie, just received my Oberon part today! Feel confident enough now to change it myself after watching your video. I had a similar problem were the fluid was being pushed past a faulty o ring in the cylinder. That fluid that gets pushed through ..do I have to worry about were it went? Any chance its now mixed with engine oil and I need to do an oil change? Possible it's a stupid question, but if you don't ask you don't learn. Thanks.

@MackieBass 4 года назад

Hey man. That fluid cannot physically enter the engine oil. It's only hydraulic pressure to operate the slave cylinder to push the clutch mechanism. So don't need to worry about that, but do inspect it for any damage or cracks etc, as it can be part of a bigger picture. Double check you manual and installation instructions, my video may help, but I'm no expert buddy. Good luck and stay safe.

@raphaelp.2739 4 месяца назад

Hello mackieBass! I have similar symptoms. While riding yesterday, it happened twice. I pressed my clutch and my bike still wanted go forward but after some minutes later the clutch restarted to work. I haven't open nothing yet I want to learn first. Bt did your bike was doing the same?

@MackieBass 4 месяца назад

it was, but it didn't fix itself. Had to replace it as it was only going to get worse.

@insanespeed Год назад

Great video! I’ve just changed mine but it seems to be a little bit of fluid between the banjo and bleeding screw. And I’ve tightened both bolts after driving and it doesn’t seems to work. I wonder if I maybe placed the hose at the wrong place, do you think it can cause a leak?

@MackieBass Год назад

Without seeing it I cannot tell, sorry.

@pauln6803 Месяц назад

I'm assuming you've got this fixed from nearly a year ago! But for anyone else the bleed nipples do weep a bit of fluid past the screw threads when bleeding and they need a good bit of torque for such a small screw, leading to knackered threads over time and repeated bleeding. Another thing you will find is the copper sealing washers between the banjo will compress, so it's wise to leave things overnight and tighten the bolts up again the next day. So yeah, if you change your lines or parts, just nip things up a second time to ensure that everything is tight. Trust me, I learn things the hard way!

@dannycraemers941 Год назад

Thnx for the video, Just installed on my 1190, it works and goes easy, but the neutral is little bit an issue, sometimes hé doen t find neutral, like a ducati, is this normal, when riding goes ok and not always have this problem, or better to ride a few days and bleed again?
