Hello
Festa748 I am having the same problems with my clutch, although slightly different in respect that every time I bleed the master cylinder all is fine until I am out and about, then I losses all clutch leaver action.
I have replaced the orignal master cylinder with an oversized one, (Evoluzione one) and checked the length of the pushrod, bleed the clutch many times with the same problem coming back (loss of leaver) but no sign of leaking oil?
So I have checked the bearing on clutch basket and it was not running freely, I guess it gets clogged with clutch dust. the movement when you engaged the clutch lever, on the basket on my bike is about 5 millimeters.
And have been advised that this is about right. (thanks PeteB)
I have tried both the shorter and longer pushrods in my 2001yr engine and found that the pushrod lenght was shorter on pre 2001yr bikes to the slightly longer one. Which I find better although I have not ruled out Nelly's suggestion
"The STM cylinders for instance come with a 10mm spacer which is dropped in to the piston before being fitted if required."
I will have another go bleeding the clutch at the weekend, and recheck the seals on the Master Cylinder, and may think about putting a bleed banjo at the leaver end see intresting post below.
