I have a 1986 Suzuki Cavalcade I rescued from a barn the bike was purchased new by my stepfather in 1986 he road it for 12,000 miles and parked it for 16 years. I have rebuilt all the brake cylinders, carbs,master cylinders and most of the electrical items(switches..etc..). So far everything is great but the clutch I have used approx 4 gallons of dot 4 trying to bled this monster and still it isnt right. The master cylinder, slave cylinder have both been rebuilt. The problem is after about 4 miles of riding the clutch starts to slip ...go much further and there is no clutch at all, but if you pull over and open the bleeder on the slave cylinder you are good to go for about 4 more miles. I have reverse bleed standard bled gravity bled and vacum bled this system still its not workin not working. I have replaced the clutch itself also, new plates springs and spacers. any help would be great !! Thanks for reading my headache lol.
