anyway of testing slave once its outta cae

[connyv6]

Strange query I know but I have a slave cylinder here and hoping to put in freebie ads is there any way off testing it or looking for something to give me peace of mind before handing it over thanks in advance

No!
If you could, you still would not get the same pressure as if its pushing the clutch.

I would not buy as 2nd hand slave, as a new one may only last 50k.

[COLVERT]

It would be a total NO NO for anybody to fit a second hand slave due to the high cost of replacing it if it goes belly up !!!!!







Chuck it and don't risk upsetting someone by giving it away.

only thought to try and benefit someone else not looking for any gain .
shall leave back on shelf then:cool:

[Mike Noc]

Conny take Colvert's advice and bin it, unless you want to fit a used one. I know I wouldn't even if it was on the shelf! ;)

dont get me wrong what you guys have said is fair point, it just seems a waste i would like to be helpful and contribute on here. slave been binned dont worry i do listen it would be a waste of time joining these forums if you werent prepared to listen.
i am going to have a premature spring clean in workshop and garages soon and see if anyone is interested in any of my clutter, call it xmas spirit:D:D
thanks for your input fellas i would have felt bad if i had caused bigger headaches for someone
side topic mr colvert what bike you got there , im a bit of an amatuer tinkerer with bikes i got about 15 im working on at the minute, but then again i remember when bikes where bikes...pm me if you like would be interested what a fellow r75 driver is using for fun

[Mike Noc]

15 bikes- what have you got? No need for PM's - don't think you can be had up for hijacking your own thread. I still get out on my trusty old Norton Commando every now and again.

Just realised I still have my old slave and master cylinder from the last clutch change, along with loads of other junk. Must have a clear out.

i would like to play with making my own zt track car one day.....

[Mike Noc]

That's a fair old collection- must take up some space. Would love to add a few more vehicles to the stable but the stable isn't big enough!

How do the 2 Enfields compare? Are they 350's or 500's?

to be fair the indian aint that bad it rides a bit tighter than the original but the quality not as good, i think if you are of the old school britannia rules wavelength and most of us on here are then you wont beat the original.
as i say space is know a premium and i have 2 sheds 1 workshop and a tandem garage with a 4 car driveway and i have to sell the boxer and a couple of bikes..sort of like rotating stock i guess:cool: i would like to collect as many as possible all in full show condition before im done but i cant stop messing with them , 75 included. i would recommend the sintra if you want a comfortable mpv with over 200horses and tbh easier to get in and out off as you get fatter (not older im peter pan!!!)

[Mike Noc]

Don't know what's happened to our friend Colvert, but in answer to your question he has a rather tasty Honda CB1000R. You can see a picture of it on his profile on the dark side.

WOW !! That really is some collection.
I come from the BSA Bantam era too.

I've spent years messing about with mechanical things but I've now got to the stage that I just want to ride my bike or drive my car without having to do much to them.

The bike's a Honda CB 1,000 R 2009.

Getting back to the original question.....

I would suggest connecting slave upto the connection on top of the gearbox - taking the place of the existing slave, putting a G-clamp on the slave, to prevent it expanding too far under pressure, then pressing the clutch pedal down hard, whilst watching for leaks from the slave.

Still not worth the risk fitting it Harry. It might be perfect on your test but it won't show how much wear there is in it. :shrug:

Could fail ten minutes after being fitted !!! :mad::mad::mad:
