Magura clutch
Road chassis, clip on handlebars.
Recent race meeting lost the clutch, the slave piston had twisted in the bore and the fluid lost in the engine I presume. Easy fix with new o-rings but it has shown up another problem.
Because of the handlebar position the fluid barely covers the piston so any loss introduces air into the system. Is there a mineral oil clutch assembly that uses a remote reservoir? Or should the rubber bladder prevent this?
