Clutch fluid loss
Find myself low on clutch fluid as of late. I rebuilt the slave last summer. I have the rebuild kit for the master but haven't done it yet.
I doubt the master is losing fluid so may need another slave rebuild. What a pain. Anyone have fluid loss and fix it with a master rebuild? |

If your going to work on the slave, replace it with an Oberon and be done with it..and yes rebuild the master as well......and hey as long as Im spending your time and money, get a stainless steel line on there as well. . |
Haha Erik yeah the stainless line I already have.
Will dig back into the slave against my will. Can you throw up a link to the oberon unit in question? |

There is a bunch of back and forth dialog with the company CEO, Tech guys and myself.... So if you have any questions ask, I may have already asked and got an answer. |
yup, replace the slave.

After rebuilding both, I've not experienced any leakage. You should have some traces somewhere if it's seeping out.

They have a really good reputation. I've never used anything from them so I'd let someone else vouch there.
And I do agree. During the rebuild, everything should be cleaned meticulously. Then a routine maintenance schedule adhered to. I change all fluids every spring which may be overkill but fluid is cheap and I like to tinker. Plus my junk is kept in an unheated garage. |

I was looking at the Oberon, what is their claim to fame?
AV If it was replacing a perfectly maintained OEM system with fresh fluid and a SS line... Id say not a huge difference at all.... Do I notice it as that was the situation I was looking at??? Maybe...... I think so but it might be the wallet talking. On the other hand it looks great, works great, has good service parts availability a warranty you cant beat (other then shipping back to the UK) And for what I paid and what i was going to put into a stock one (clean, strip, powder coat, rebuild all new service parts) I was ok with going new after market. |

Erik I looked at the link for the US company and they don't have vtr parts listed. Can it be bought here or just from the UK link?
|
I just got one off of Ebay $117..
|
Was it listed as Oberon for a vtr1000 or just a model number?(what was the model number?)
I can only find the one for the RC51. Not compatible. |
