• I need to know if putting a hydraulic clutch on my 250 if then I can eliminate the shaft in the cover. So where the screwdriver is vertical is what Im trying to be able to get rid of. Anyone with any knowledge of the hydra clutches knows if this is achievable? Judging by the pics I see its just a thin metal rod. http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/44/73/268/981/11066/-/47732/Magura-Hydraulic-Clutch?ref=gmc&gclid=CJHQubyQ97kCFYai4AodQ3MAjw

• no.  that rod dissengages the clutch.  you need that.  just attach the slave cylinder from the hydraulic kit to the arm on top of the clutch case where the stock cable goes.  it not just a bolt on and go.    your going to have to at least make a bracket for the cylinder to mount.  and probably alot of trial and error
  
  just keep the cable its cheaper and easier.  and works.

• I would like to have it just cable but trying to find a way to delete that rod as I am wanting to make a quick change clutch cover but that's kind of screwing me.

• you can keep that rod and still have a quick change clutch cover.  look at say a 94 rm125 clutch cover.  that rod is made into the quick change cover.  think most 2 stroke rms had that

• So something like this would work perfectly.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/RM125-SUZUKI-1993-LOT-A-RM-125-93-CLUTCH-COVER-/370896081665?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&hash=item565b211301&vxp=mtr

• yes something like that should work.  you'll need to do alot of machining to the stock cover to get it to work and seal.   look for an rm250 cover, might have a bigger opening than a 125

• I've been looking at those pit bike hydraulic conversions too. He'll, it's only $30! Worst that can happen is you might have to buy a pit bike to go with the clutch that don't work on the LT.

• It is and the fitting on the slave cylinder is a really odd size (small) so it's making it a chore to find the right size.
  
  ALSO, the rod is too long to fit the pull arm on the Suzuki.
  
  AND the end on the rod isn't the correct style to FIT the pull arm on the Suzuki
  
  AND the end is crimped on.
  
  I'm gunna try and tweak it to make it work. We will see,,,,
  
  $50 says that it ain't gunna work!!
  
  YOU CAN, save your pennies and drop $300 on a Magura set-up that will for sure work though. It's pretty much universal and they can set it up for what you need.
  
  I think I'm gunna have to make a custom pull arm for the Suzuki though.
