Is there an article or file in here about rebuilding the clutch master cylinder. Mine started leaking fluid down the handle bar this weekend and caused me to ride home 15 miles without the use of the clutch.

Be sure to cover your bike to protect it from dripping brake fluid.

Finally got it rebuilt and is working fine now. Had to buy some long skinny needle nose plyers and grind the ends to a point to get the clip out. I have 3 types of clip plyers but none would fit in to the end of the master to get the clip out.
