Issue with Clutch Master Cylinder

[95jersey]

The clutch MC failed on my 2014 Gas 300, fortunately I was able to get one replaced under warranty. The second one has now failed and the cost will be on me.

I spoke with a couple other Gasser's and some have had similar issues with their clutch MC's as well.

Is there any other resolve than buying a new MC and hoping it doesn't happen again?

Seeing as it failed AGAIN i would be bitching to Gas Gas to replace it AGAIN. Obviously there is an issue.

Put a Magura on the bike.

I swapped mine out from jump street.

It looks like the part is covered under its warranty. Which magura MCI works? I assume you need to match the piston size.

 

[gasgasman]

Magura 9.5

This is the one I had on my 2011 GG. I went to swap it to my '15 bike and the clutch hose is different.
Version 1:

The '15 will require this one.
Version 2:

BTW. The Magura has a better engagement range than the AJP.

Are the new magura's still mineral oil? or did they switch to dot 4

 

[gasgasman]

The Maguras use mineral oil.

So found out this is a known issue yet I had to buy a replacement at my own cost

My 2011 has the Magura. It is a pain to bleed but other than that it's a trouble free part. I would be surprised that you could get anything from GasGas right because of their financial mess.
