[QUOTE="ionbeam, post: 1262068, member: 277"] Air bubble = soft 'n spongy. Firm/hard = mechanical issue or blocked hydraulic passage. While it could be the slave cylinder is unable to actuate the push rod or an issue with the clutch spring/plates the only thing really fiddled with in the entire hydraulic system was the lever and master cylinder on the handlebar. If the hose going to the slave cylinder isn't pinched or blocked the next most likely place to check is the lever and pivot. The pivot and brass bushing have to be removed to check, clean & lube and should be done on a regular basis anyway so doing this makes sense as the first step in diagnosis while performing required maintenance at the same time.
