Vstrom 1000 Clutch Problems in Peru
My clutch actuator (the hydraulic bit down by the chain) has sprung a leak.
Opening it up reveals lots of dirt has got around the rubber skirt and contaminated everything. Hydraulic fluid oozes around the piston when the clutch lever is depressed.
I tried bolting everything up tight but the fluid rapidly drains from the upper reservoir cylinder.
Also, when I pull the clutch pushrod out of its hole motor oil spills out of the hole. I can't remember if that is normal or not.
So I'm stuck in Chiclayo, Peru. I think I'm going to try to have a replacement actuator DHLed here.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
