I was sent the photos by a.n.other, thought they might be of interest and contribute to this thread.

The Haynes manual recommended method of bleeding the clutch is to back-fill the system.

The clutch is failing on my 2010.

Has anyone replaced the original seals on the master cylinder piston with Magura 072211 or KTM 61002032000?
