Hi

I fitted a Factory Racing , clutch is dragging on the padock stand, not enough movement in the piston to release the pressure plate fully , even on full clutch release the pressure plate normally stops rotating

I have the extra little rod spacer installed too , I presume the rubber O rings ; you put between the engine casing and cylinder to stop dirt going in?

I recently installed an Oberon slave on my S4 and it made one hell of a difference. It is like a new bike again. Well worth the money.

I fitted an Oberon on my 1997 900 some when around 2011 I think but only because I got it at a good price from someone in the club and the gold matched the rest of my bike.

Unlike many profess, I didn’t really notice a difference in either bite position or making it a lighter action.

You can get a rebuild kit for the original which I had done previously on mine back in 2005 which was still working well at the point of change.

The problem with most of those aftermatke slaves is that the stanard mc isnt big enough or is borderline displacing enough fluid. Mine has the stanfard S4 master which may be the same as yours or slightly bigger but even that is borderline. I have the span adjusted to its biggest setting to get the most lever and piston movement as posdible and its fine at that.
