Hi All,
During a recent ride the clutch on my Paso was making noise. Pulling away from traffic lights was a slow affair and the clutch felt really juddery. I have taken off the clutch cover and checked whether the piston is turning freely in the bearing. I can feel a few slight notches, so I guess it is best to replace the slave.
I have purchased a piston set from Dreamvee in Germany (I know G, not the cheapest option but my local ducati dealer is hopeless in getting any Paso parts.
And I did make sure to order the 26mm one).My main question is: how do I go about replacing the piston with the new one? Is this a question of pushing the old one out with the pressure from the clutch lever and dropping the new one in? As always. your advice is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Mike
If checking these seals, Dont blow out dust untill you have removed the clutch , then use compressed air and if the dust doesnt blow away .... its wet ... change the seals . if it is all nice and dry in there replace the seals , coz its easily done and cheap and your right there. My paso had done 67,000k's and the seals were leaking enough to cause a juddery , grabby clutch ( as I explained to the officer " if I try to take off slowly it just stalls ".... we didnt mention the webber ).
