I have a 06 999R Xerox. Just replaced the clutch pack in a STM slipper clutch which specs requires a 36.5 mm stack height. My stack is at 36.5.
I have bleed the slave and the master cylinder.
If I take the pressure plate off and press the clutch lever a couple of times the clutch becomes rock hard. In other words the slave cylinder has expanded to the outside of the engine case and can not go any further. It does not go back in because the pressure plate is off. Should this take several pumps to achieve or just one?
Not with the bike in 1st gear and running on a rear stand. When I press the clutch the rear wheel slows down but not to a complete stop.
If I remove the thin plate (1.5 mm) then repeat the bike disengages completely. Makes sense because now the plates have an additional 1.5 mm to rotate freely.
So it seems that there is something wrong with the slave cylinder. It is a stm and only has about 2K miles on it.
Also with the clutch engaged and the pressure plate installed, I see the push rod move but I do not actually see the cylinder extend outside of the slave housing. Should it?
I should also state that with everything installed when I pull the clutch in it feels correct as far as the amount of force that it takes to pull the lever. In other words it does not feel like air is in the lines.
Any suggestions as to what might be wrong.
Thanks for any help or suggestions!
