#3what a plonker i am !, after a day of stress regarding the clutch (see my first post) a mate who has husaberg race bikes came round to help to which i showed him my problem, i was bleeding the clutch correctly but then , with the bike on a rear paddock stand , putting the bike in first gear ,pulling the clutch lever in and trying to rotate the rear wheel to see if it would turn , ie clutch now working , however when i couldnt do this i assumed i hadnt bled it properly and then started the whole process again, HOWEVER he said take it off the stand and try first gear, clutch in and push the bike , hey presto everthing fine, this is due to really strong clutch springs in the superduke, so if anyone has the same problem i hope you read this thread !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you cant turn the wheel like other bikes with the clutch in /first gear, simples !!!!

#4Another way to flush the clutch fluid is from the bottom fitting at the slave with use of a syringe. Use the blead valve on the master to vent / flush. Use clear line on the master and blead all the bubbles up and out.
