The puppy lasted until fall. Now in teardown mode for new build
I know that the HD kit comes in one size, but is it 9/16 or 11/16? I cant find it. I've got HD hydraulic clutch transmission cover and want to buy aftermarket hand master cylinder for it which is offered in two sizez
It's 11/16. Are you matching your brake & clutch levers & mounts, or just changing the clutch? If it's just the clutch you can find master cylinders on ebay. I have an entire kit for the 5 speed, but need the transmission cover for a six speed. If you have any information on reasonable pricing for the transmission cover (pn 37137-07) I'd appreciate it if you'd pass it on.

How did the conversion go I am trying to do the same but the kits at the dealers I have checked with state their kit will not work with the Ultima 6 speed LSD.
Whew.. glad you guys got that settled, I am poring a single malt Scotch now to calm my nerves:

I have a hydraulic clutch on my 50 FL. It was on there when I bought it 10 years ago. There are no markings on it anywhere. I have no idea where it was made or who made it. I'm assuming that some custom work was involved with the transmission end cover. I don't even know where to get a clutch lever if I ever brake this one. Everybody I know wants one. I've been searching online for about an hour and a half and can't seem to find one for a big twin.
I'll tell you that the pull is sweet! And it beats the hell out of adjusting a mousetrap. Actually my front brake lever has a harder pull and it's hydraulic too.
From the link above: The Mainstreet Hydraulic Clutch Systems fit 1986 to 2005 Sportster models, and Big Twins from 1987 on. This all-in-one Drag/Magura kit is price competitive with pieced-together systems on the same level, too; pricing starts at $249.95 for the black-finish 56-inch Sportster model. The Big Twin black hydraulic clutch system retails for $369.95, in chrome it’s $479.95.
Just to join in here, the Harley hydraulic unit I just TOOK OFF my Ultra has a BIG 11/16 stamped on the underside. Yep...they tried to hide ii under the unit.
I took it off because I did not believe the instructions when I installed it about a year ago, but have finally gave up and went back to the mechanical lift mechanism. The instructions stated that it was not to be used with the SE spring and now I know why. It will work, but barely. I had gear clash, hanging-up between gears and hard shifting. I bled the thing on a constat basis and even swapped from DOT 5 to DOT4, as DOT 5 is more compressable....nothing helped much. The one I had is just not strong enough to overcome a strong clutch spring.
On the other hand, I helped my buddy install one on an EVO and his works beautifully. However, he has a stock EVO spring that is around 100-pounds lighter than mine too. There are several aftermarket manufacturers that make hydraulic units that could be better....don't know.
