    Clutch slave on the KTM Adventure

    My clutch fluid reseovoir drained itself today. I traced the fault to a leaking clutch slave. Does anyone know if I can just replace the o rings in the piston or will KTM demand that I buy a whole new slave?

    Have a look at the Orange Crush section of Advrider, I believe some have had a lot of success just doing the seals others have replaced the slave (as i did when mine went south). There is also an uprated slave, called evo or something that's s'posed to sure all your ills.

    Probably...

    Good luck, it's a bugger that this still happens

    Yea I heard that was a problem, and not just on the bigger Adventures. Have a mate with a 640 that had the same thing. pennies to fix though.
