| Clutch problems?
Hi,
I usually like to use only 2 fingers to action the clutch lever and this has become a problem lately. (Ducati 916)
I had the clutch standard adjustable lever set at position 2 and with 2 fingers it released the clutch without problems. I noticed lately that it became harder to get it into neutral with the lever pressed by only 2 fingers (with the lever pushed completely it's ok)- kinda like i needed to press it even closer to the handlebar. I bleeded the clutch/changed fluid to brand new DOT5.1 and it still does the same, (pressed at the same position as before seems like it doesn't disengage the clutch properly...). I don;t want to put the lever at position 1 cause it's to far and i cannot reach it
Is this due to the clutch plates or pressure plate running out??
Or this could be a fault somewhere at the clutch master cylinder (slave cylinder is new - 998 revised model with newer model clutch rod fitted)?
Please advise ,
Many thanks
Cipi
PS: Forget to mentioned, but i crashed the bike and i changed the clutch drum/center/plates/pressure plate with some used ones (plates are ok). Springs are brand new, but the rest are used
