Now that is scary!

Put the hydro clutch line and master and slave together...bled it on the bench...fed it down through the body...bolted straight up both ends!...have full clutch travel..first go...in fact there is no slack on the arm so I will have to adjust it so there is a smidgen of play in there but I can't believe it..wasnt looking forward to it and it was the easiest job so far..weird..
