              Ordered the last few components for this this morning. Clutch braided line from Hel, Lithium battery and brand new OEM clutch plates and friction plates. Plus a few bits of bling for the clutch cover.

              Hydraulic Clutch Conversion finished.

                  @NINJA Cheers bud, there won't be any bolts that will protrude through the adapter plate. I've got some titanium bolts ordered for it. The other thing that will protrude will be the pushrod, and that will stop the clutch from smashing into the cover.

                    It's done, lock this thread down The Helios Project is finished.

                    I took a small video to show anyone who is interested of the Hydraulic Clutch in action.

                    Not sure, but @NINJA Wanted to see the clutch perch for the Hydraulic system.

                    That's it bolted to the engine.

                    Back on the green for a few more snaps in all its armor!

                        @NINJA Yeah, sun was definitely out in force today. No doubt winter is coming though. Doubt this bike will see the road this year.

                            @NINJA Can't say I am really that bothered to be fair. It's been so long since I've ridden a bike that I've forgotten the thrill. My DT died January 2014. So that's well over 4 years of not having a vehicle. Knowing my luck, the bike will probably shit itself the first time it hits the powerband anyhow.

                                    @NINJA Coolant, Oil and Fuel.

                                    There is a bleed nipple at the top of the radiator. But I ran out of coolant to top it up with.
                                    The fuel tap I bought from PJME is a load of wank. Just pisses out.
                                    And I've lost the gear lever shaft oil seal. So it's leaking from there.

                                    Everything is all ordered up for it though. Next week it should be finished.

                                        @NINJA It's not an O-ring. It's the actual nitrite seal on the shaft.
