The hydraulic clutch piston mounts directly on the chain cover. bikebandit.
com calls it an engine cover. ive changed the fluid and bled the system twice,
so i dont think thats the problem. im wondering if the piston spacing can be
adjusted. there arent any spacers or shims between the piston and the chain
cover, so its left me guessing. Ive tried tightening the piston completely,
half way and so forth. what do you think?
