CB500K2 Hydraulic clutch actuation
« on: February 21, 2021, 09:09:14 AM »
I want to install a hydraulic clutch actuator on my CB500K2. I have seen it on this forum but I don't know by whom. I would appreciate any help in identifying the parts that are needed and directions to the installation. I'm hoping someone here will be able to help.
    Thank you
     Bob

Thanks for the link to Godfreys. I have E-mailed them for whatever info they can give me.
 I thought that I had seen a "how to" for the clutch mod here on this forum awhile back. If anyone else remembers it please let me know.
Thanks

There are a few threads which reference the MAGURA setup: https://www.magura.com/en/components/powersports/hydraulicclutchsystems/productdetailpage/?p=1853

There is a thread here which links to an outside discussion with many details if you are up for the machining work:

Using the advanced search feature for multiple words works great if you put them in quotes (ex. "hydraulic clutch").
