I looked into fitting a hydraulic clutch on my ZG (same fuel injected engine as your Voyager) about 10 years ago, as you've probably found it's not easy to fit a slave on the outer cover as you can with the carb models as the casing isn't parallel. I then started looking at the same type of slave as you've used but couldn't find one with a long enough stroke. as the actuating lever on our bikes has a longer stroke than the carb models. But it looks like you've found one with a long enough stroke B)

Hey. Thanks for posting that - considering this option myself. As shown in your picture, the hose droops a bit before it head up towards the handle bards. On the regular clutch cable, moisture accumulates in that 'droop' and causes the cable/jacket to corrode - I have to lube mine several times a season to keep the corrosion at bay so the cable 'pull' will be smooth.

What did you use for a master cylinder (sorry if you've posted that already - I didn't see it.

Also curious how you determined the length of the hydraulic hose you needed - did you used the OEM outer cable length as a guide?
