Popped down to Maidstone today for a meeting. Stopped for fuel half way (29 liters! - glad I stopped when I did ).
Came to pull away, off the main stand and discovered something weird about the clutch lever. It now reached the handlebar and the was only just enough movement in the system for me to change gear.
I've got back home OK, though I kept thinking "is out about to fail totally?!".
My thoughts are it's the master cylinder piston that's shagged. I can't see a leak anywhere and despite the little movement, it maintains pressure if held in.
Any ideas? Is they're a way too check the master cylinder, short of removing it?
Cheers
