you can get air without a leak out

How? Unless the fluid got hot enough to vaporize the humidity trapped in the fluid ( which old, shitty fluid can do if it got hot )
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

sometimes air gets in at the point where the res connects to the master, sucks air in around the o-ring. also have seen lines suck air without leaking and slaves as well.

So true. Jing's clutch fluid, if you can even call it fluid, was the nastiest shit to come out of a clutch in all of the Ducati clutch's that I have ever worked on. Halfway through the bleeding the lever pressure went totally to shit & I was worried that the master might have given up the ghost but 8 or 9 pumps later it came back to life and was super strong & positive. There are huge amounts to be said for maintenance bleeding.

Which, in a way, begs the question, What's happening with you & your bike?

I gotta get some free time to run down and see how long it'll take SSD to get the parts if I order from them. I could just order from Ducati Omaha, they have an online parts catalogue.......

What's up with your bike Trey?
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

retaining wire on rear sprocket carrier retaining nut broke/fell off/was removed by someone other than myself. Nut walked itself off the axle. On Tantalus. Glad I had a buddy with a truck.

After today's ride and not cleaned up yet. The stock version with ABS & high bars. Still  [thumbsup] in it's own right.
