After reading through all of 12 pages of this thread, I found myself left hanging with nothing to retain from all this search and no conclusion to the problem that started it.

Was a viable solution ever found to replace or rebuild the now NLA clutch slave cylinder?

What was causing the clutch to remain dis-engaged and how was it remedied?

I’m sure there might be a sequel (or two) to this somewhere... @docc ?

Ps: not trying to solve a current problem, only inquiring mind wondering. :nerd:

Well, I don't know if anyone ever discovered a source for a replacement Grimeca clutch slave cylinder for our V11, or a rebuild kit/seals, either . . .

I see my clutch failure showed up on Page 3. No, it wasn't the slave cylinder. The "safety washer" had failed on the gearbox input hub and the hub was spinning off, and back onto, the input shaft. At times, this would foul the clutch disengagement, then it would spin in and the problem would disappear. Then return.

Short story, here (that contains a link to the "Sticking Clutch" thread):

Thanks @docc , did you end up re-installing the original slave with its seals or a spare one?

I have a used replacement a member here provided. Unfortunately, it came from a parts bike that had corrosion issues and I struggled to get the Zerk to seal. All good, now: 6 years; 28,000 miles/ 45.000 km
