Water entering clutch hydraulic reservoir

Post by Turbo4x4 »

On two occasions now, I've had to drain my clutch hydraulic reservoir, and bleed the hydraulic line due to moisture intrusion, which first manifests itself with very jerky clutch lever motion, and by a squeeking noise from the clutch. The gasket appears fine, so I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced a problem with this? I always store the bike inside, so this problem only occurs when I'm traveling and it rains overnight.
