Bike 1991 750ss clutch slave in right hand case ,, not bleeding seems the new bleed screw is not long enough ?? so air and fluid still coming through to bleeder even when fully closed .. seems this type of clutch needs a long tipped bleed screw the old one was trashed , new one is stainless but im suspecting it needs to be longer by 3 or 4mm to seat and close the circuit ???

Ok found a 20mm longer one and it works but now the coffin style clutch master cylinder seals are not sealing properly so I need a rebuild kit for one .. any ideas ????

Im totally pissed off , my mental health has not been good again , and the monster gearboix is still jammed by the neutral switch , it just will not come out ... also my daughter bike the only one I have to ride its clutch cable broke today just as I was going for a calming down ride ,,

it just one more problem after another bikes , cars , daughters pregnacy , Moho, ...

Everything is pissing me off , my family, my health , my ADHD , the terrible diet the doctors have made me start , so i have totally lost interest in food , now they are complaining im under weight, at 65kg every day I get the feeling life just in not worth it anymore at 66 , nothing is getting better , nothing to look forward too,,, tired all the time ,,
