    Be more specific. What happens (or doesn't happen) when you try to bleed the clutch? i.e. How are you attempting to bleed it?

    Use a pressurized bleeder kit / vacuum unit.. I use it on Harleys all the time...

    You can also reverse bleed using a turkey baster or 30cc syringe and some hydraulic tubing. If you do it this way be sure to have the reservoir covered with a towel or other absorbent material as to keep the brake fluid from spraying onto the plastics or instrument cluster. For some reason I could never get the vacuum bleeder to work for me despite having used it before on other vehicles.

    It took a long time for me. Just keep pumping. It will go through eventually
