624 viewsUse an 8mm open-ended wrench to crack open the bleeder nipple when bleeding the clutch slave. I used clear tubing, bungeed to the kick-stand, and let it drain into a glass container. I bled my system until fresh fluid appeared. Remember to keep an eye on the reservoir! Oh yeah, you no longer need the plastic wrap cover. When done, make sure the reservoir is about 3/4 full, then insert the rubber boot and secure the cap.

612 viewsOnce the clutch slave is bolted down (10 ft-lbs) pre-fill with DOT-4 brake fluid. I used a syringe and found 6cc to be enough to reach the bottom of the threads. Next, remove the banjo fitting from the stock unit and put it on the new one, torquing it down to 23 ft-lbs.

610 viewsThe nice thing with the titanium "colored" Oberon is that its coloration is close to that of the stock unit and thus doesn't stand out.

607 viewsAttach the Hypermotard line loosely to the engine. Remove the breather bracket from the front left side of the engine (5mm Allen wrench) and then remove the breather line from the bracket. Position the bracket on the existing oil line and insert the new line as shown.

The TankSlapper body protection film603 viewsAfter shots of the TankSlapper protection film applied to the tank and my custom application around the ignition switch. 3M film applied to the headlight. The stuff WORKS and can't be seen over a couple feet away. I recommend this stuff to protect your ride!

603 viewsThe stock clutch slave removed. Look at all that black crud! Give the area a good wipe down with a clean rag. Smear grease on the clutch push-rod if you wiped any off. I smeared white lithium grease on the mating surface of my Oberon, mimicking the stock application.
