Loosen and remove all bolts securing the OEM clutch slave cylinder to the engine, as well as the banjo bolt securing the fluid line to the slave cylinder. Make sure to catch any brake fluid that comes from the system when removing the kit. Squeeze the brake lever as close to the hand grip as you can and secure it with a tie-wrap, to prevent brake fluid from spilling from the reservoir. The part is a direct replacement for the OEM part, installation is very simple:
#RACING MASTER CYLINDER AND SLAVE INSTALL#
We strongly recommend not the install the 30mm variant on 900 and 916 engines (such as the Monster 900, the 748/916, SuperSport 750/900 pre-2000, etc.) as they can have problems with clutch engagement if the clutch is already a bit worn, the 28mm will do just fine on those models. Available in red, black, gold and titanium, with a choice of 26mm, 28mm and 30mm diameters.
The slave cylinder is milled from solid aluminium and hard-anodized, for a long-lasting colour. For pre-2000 Monsters a spacer is supplied. The kit fits all Ducati's with external slave cylinder except for the Panigale. They do offer a 30% to 40% lower clutch effort, and bleeding the slave cylinder is easy and quickly done. We tested their clutch slave cylinders for months before starting with the brand as a whole, and we were never disappointed. They are unrivalled in their combination of mechanical excellence and their affordable price. CNC Racing has initially built its brand starting with their clutch slave cylinders.
