one last thing - when i took the cap off the resevoir today, the diaphragm was hanging down like a little condom inside the resevoir. i didn't think anything of it, but when reading the haynes when i got back, i noticed that this diagphragm is supposed to be compressed. is this significant? |
Yes, it could be.
If the diaphragm is extended it means that there is very little if any fluid left in the reservoir.
Also check that the clutch lever is not fouling on the indicator switch assembly.
If this has rotated around the handlebar or the lever angle has been altered, the clutch lever can catch and not fully release, causing problems similar to that which you describe sometimes giving a click when you operate it......( Found this out going through Nice in the rush hour... ! )
I'd be tempted to chceck the lever clearance, fully bleed the system & try again.
