Replace clutch hydraulic line

(1/2) > >>

Fazer:
I am trying to replace my brake and clutch lines with braided steel. I can handle the brakes but cannot see how the clutch line is routed. I see where it connects to the slave but cannot see the line above the engine. Is it necessary to remove the fuel tank to get to it?  I just filled up so if that’s the case I will hold off until I run the fuel out.

Thanks.

yep its routed and attached to the upper frame. u might be able to lift the tank and tilt it to the right. I do the tilt procedure to change out the air filter.  when I did mine and the was tank off.

Thanks. I took the seat off and can see where the rubber hose meets the rigid line and cam to that conclusion. Probably ready for the air filter as well.

mello dude:
Photos from a horn relay job, but look at the hose marked with a dab of blue paint.
The line swings by the airbox. I replaced mine a few years back.



Have you already purchased a new line?

If we can coordinate schedules, I may be able to come down for some help...

unless u ride dirt roads and construction sites the air filter lasts longer than 12k miles. I tested mine over 24k miles and it had same restriction as a new one.    many vehicle manufacturers over 20 yrs ago went to a 12k change out to sell product, like the 3k oil change.

YMMV
