I didn't figure a clean and install would cut it, but a man can hope! And mostly we just needed to see her run to check the block for leaks ;s Thanks for the insights, most make a lot of sense now that you mention it, should have known! Others I already checked upon cleaning. I'll dig into it...

I made pictures of how it all came out, so it's in correctly. The investor (father - in-law) feels it most important to keep the bike as original as possible. So reman or new Yamaha pump (expensive) or try the rebuild... I'll try cleaning the bore more, and otherwise run you guys' info past him...

It's more an eye roll of despair, no offense meant... I can clearly see the piston moving through the toothpick hole and the spring compressing through the clutch line hole :( must be the seals after all then?! Which is aggravating since I can feel it sealing, or so I think, the feel of rubber...

I'm sure the hole is clean, I can spray brake clean through it. There's a pinsize hole and a toothpick size hole, and they both produce either bubbles or a movement in fluid in the reservoir... :rolleyes:

I did! The cup seal and plunger ring are both in very good nick, that's why I'm puzzled...

Yes it is, if you see the clip you'll know I'm beyond those steps: I took off the banjo bolt and the pump is moving no fluid whatsoever... :(

Hi guys, I've got the same problem actually! I've been through the bleeding process, no success (even though I heard some small bubbles once), then undid the slave cylinder connection to see if the problem was in the bleeder nipple, still nothing. Next undid the connection at the master...

Hi guys, new-ish member here (Belgium) since I decided to DIY tackle the 2nd gear problem. No snags up until this point: block is in, she started right up on the first try and bada-bing, bada-boom, before you know it I'm halfway down a six-pack with my father-in-law because didn't I do...

Thank you Sean, first things first: get up close and personal with that case! As I am starting a new job this week, it doesn't look like she'll be out and about before winter anyway...

Hi Sean, what does the overdrive option include precisely? We are currently undertaking the tranny work, but I see your 'overdrive' popping up everywhere and can't seem to figure out exactly what the added benefit would be? Thanks for your time, Jonas.
