Same here, a hex key, a cell phone and my breakdown membership card is all that I've put together so far.I just stick a 5mm hex key in my pocket to get under the seat if and when the fuses back out or blow. A cell phone and a buddy with a pickup truck or van.
Ha ha ha ha ha. Very funnyThere is a very good chance that you will NOT break down .
If you remove the reservoir lid for the clutch and then turn the bars full right hand lock, then very gently push in the lever, with a cloth or something around the reservoir, you might get air out there.Well, I guess the blown tranny don't count. And can we count the running out of fuel because my fuel light only works when the tank is full but not when empty? So, so far its only been all of my relays shaking out and a nail in the tire. But I certainly would not leave home empty handed. Getting off of the highway the other day with the motor stuck on 2k idle and the clutch not fully engaging was interesting enough. Didn't get me stuck, but I'm glad I didn't rear end the car in front of me. Still have to address where that air is coming from. I keep bleeding the clutch.
Its intermittent so when I think its going good...…...
Thank you Rob. I've been keeping the bike level on the paddock stand but haven't tried turning the bars full to the right. I've tried an air bleed from the top only and multiple bleeds from the bleed nipple. My ride always starts well after a bleed and finishes with a few double clutches due to a lock up. I'll give your method a go. I'm not qualified to do mechanical work on the slave unit, so if it doesn't work, I'll bring it to a mechanic. After all, its Brembo, not Norton.If you remove the reservoir lid for the clutch and then turn the bars full right hand lock, then very gently push in the lever, with a cloth or something around the reservoir, you might get air out there.
When the bars are straight ahead, the master cylinder is pointing slightly up, so air gets caught, so moving to full lock drops the angle.
