I would Love to have a hydraulic clutch for my FZ-10 but I can't find anything for it nor for an R1. Anyone know anything that would work? I was thinking of jerry rigging a hydraulic clutch system from another bike that i think would work; FZ-09. I think it would work so long as the cable lengths are the same. What are your guys thoughts?  |

I've had both on different bikes and both work well. The only advantage I saw with the hydraulic clutch is it just didn't need adjusting where it only takes a couple of minutes of your time to do a click or two on your cable. Both types can break so that's my two cents.

The complicated bit would be matching the hydraulic clutch actuator movement to the bike's clutch arm movement for the correct movement of the clutch arm and feel at the lever. The hydraulic clutch manufacturer should be able to help there.
Good luck,

I seen a guy on the Facebook group try it. The switch gear was too big and he couldn't pull the lever in.
Either swap the lever or switchgear would help. I think it was a brembo unit.

revolvingrain,
What are you trying to accomplish with the swap: easier pull, wider gap between pulled in and engaged, or just getting a hydraulic system?

revolvingrain, What are you trying to accomplish with the swap: easier pull, wider gap between pulled in and engaged, or just getting a hydraulic system? MrHix I've just always wanted one and want to experience it for myself; also for the very little maintenance. |
