November 5, 201213 yr I snapped the clutch hose clean off at the point it goes into the reservoir/lever. It looks as if they are £53 for a replacement (2004 Beta Rev3). Which is more than for Gas Gas & Sherco. Has anyone found a cheaper repair/replacement ?
November 5, 201213 yr I snapped my clutch at the same place on my evo. Went to a car tuning shop nearby and bought a fitting that tightens on with an olive. They are a standard sized thread and was about 2 quid. Just have to cut the old fitting off first so you lose an inch or so of length but its not a problem. Only Bad part is, its not a swivel fitting, so you have to play around a bit to get it to tighten at the right point so that your master cylinder is the right way up when you finish. Oh and the fitting i bought had a concave end, rather than a flat one, so i had a mate machine the end flat on a lathe.
November 6, 201213 yr If you can get a Banjo fitting like on Sherco pre all these modern types it will be harder to snap off...have a look at Sherco's
November 9, 201213 yr Always get some spare olives so if you tighten wrong you can do it again. You snapped the pipe union and not the perch itself?
