No Steve, not the way I made it. I think a guy could make that work but you would have to shorten push rod. There is already a guy that makes a slave cylinder that takes place of the worm gear. Davido posted a link to that. Its made by American classic x

Here is a link from GPz750KS Hydraulic clutch conv

Well, I need to get some material for spacers, clean it up and some new bolts and its done. Still waiting on some new banjo ends for the hydraulic line. I wanted to get the bracket mounted before I ordered the banjo for the slave cylinder end.






I will end up pulling the starter and painting it the same color as the motor so it blends in.

Couple of finish photos of the exhaust bracket, Decided to put a little polish on the rear set bracket also. Now I have to do it to all the rearset parts :pinch:

I like it. The starter is not hidden like it used to be so I may take it out and pretty it up a bit.

Yes Doc, those are from Les Holt. I polished them. He also made the motor mounts. I made the mount spacers that match the foot pegs he made. I still need to polish the engine mounts to match through rearsets.
