| OR

• | Subtract full-down position from full-up position to determine clutch fork travel.

1. Method 2:

1.1. | Using a piece of round wire rod, mark the full-up and full-down position on the rod.

1.2. | Measure the distance between the two marks to determine the clutch fork travel.

• | If fork travel is less than 10.80 mm (0.43 in.) travel is insufficient.

• | If fork travel is less than 10.80 mm (0.43 in.), check the following:

| Important: The first three bullets require clutch master and actuator cylinder assembly replacement.

• | Fluid leaks in hydraulic system.
