Here is some plusses;
 More consistent feel, ie no cable lubing, stretching/wear, freezing issues.

 Smoother  actuation.

 Matched levers on handlebars for better looks.

,Braided lines as well.

think this would be low profile enough?
is there a ratio type thing to think about when piecing this together?  much like the ratio for calipers and masters when talking about brakes.

i really would want to do this if it could be hidden under the "tin" cover
also anyone know a master that would look right with the F3 brake master that im using?  i would want something with a similar look

Ok so i bought a master that will match my CBR F2/3 brake master and a slave.

the set up is a cbr1000f (same as ST1100) master and slave from cbr1000 or V30.

i crossed the OEM part numbers on bikebandit and got some good deals on Ebay.

2002 ST1100 master $29 shipped
1984 V30 slave $16 shipped.

i have NO idea if the slave will fit under the "tin" cover but it looks very low profile.

anyone have any good impute?
how about a source for a adjustable rod to use between the slave and clutch?  something from McMasters?

thanks for any help

stupid question from a non CB750 owner....

750 have a mechanical PULL ,mechanism in the clutch cover

Most if not all hydraulic clutches actuators activate the clutch via a PUSHrod thorugh the primary shaft.
(leaving aside dirt bike with a cyl pulling on the mechanism lever)

How do you guys plan to use a PUSH cylinder to PULL the clutch?

just wondering...

 ;D TG,I sure don't know but when you pull stock you are really pushing....they just going to eliminate the pull part. ;)
I prefer cables myself.Bill....add an actuator rod to slave cylinder?
