Author Message   Dktechguy112 Posted on Thursday, January 13, 2011 - 10:31 am:        I just got a 2010 motor in my 1125, the bike is an 09, and I had the clutch fix done on the 09, just wondering if I will have to have it done on the 2010 also.   Buellmojo Posted on Thursday, January 13, 2011 - 10:41 am:        Not sure, I am curious of this too?   Sportster_mann Posted on Thursday, January 13, 2011 - 10:56 am:        The 2010 models have a different clutch leak - they leak internally, no telltale dribble from the weep hole in the clutch cover. You will first notice the problem when you pull in the clutch and the lever goes straight to the handlebar - there will be no fluid in the reservoir. This usually happens when the bike has been standing.   Buellmojo Posted on Thursday, January 13, 2011 - 11:36 am:        Wow that sucks! How common is this internal leak with the 2010 engines?   Drhodes1970 Posted on Thursday, January 13, 2011 - 11:52 am:        So the problem is still present but they changed it so you can't tell till it's too late?   Sportster_mann Posted on Thursday, January 13, 2011 - 02:05 pm:        Buellmojo said quote: Wow that sucks!

( And 1 doesn't get ridden !).   Trafford Posted on Thursday, January 13, 2011 - 04:13 pm:        2008 1125R After reading many posts and seeing how the reservoir was filled/overfilled when I checked it.... I decided to reduce the level to the lowest safe mark. Since then I am at 11000 miles and no leaks or fluid loss. Something for people to check maybe.   Ausxb Posted on Thursday, January 13, 2011 - 05:56 pm:        Mine went at 4500klms, fine one day resevoir empty the next, all internally drained while sitting it seems. I was disapointed it wasn't fixed in the 2010's. So far so good after warranty repairs.   Jersey_thunder Posted on Thursday, January 13, 2011 - 06:37 pm:        I decided to reduce the level to the lowest safe mark.

HMMMMM?...I WONDER   Daniii Posted on Friday, January 14, 2011 - 12:09 pm:        They discovered my clutch weep on my last service call. Parts ordered under warranty, and they came in yesterday. Supposed to be a 45 minute operation. What "parts" are ordered?   Froggy Posted on Friday, January 14, 2011 - 12:22 pm:        quote: So the problem is still present but they changed it so you can't tell till it's too late? From the sound of it, it probably is a different issue. Before this thread I've only heard of it happening on one bike, and given the low production of 2010s it will be interesting to see what the issue is and how common it was.   Fastfxr Posted on Thursday, June 02, 2011 - 08:25 am:        2010 1125cr 8000klm went to go for a ride and no clutch fluid it was fine a couple of days ago   Fastfxr Posted on Thursday, June 02, 2011 - 08:39 am:        (Message edited by fastfxr on June 02, 2011)
