Traveling into work this morning the first thing a notice is the bike just feels different to ride. I'd release the clutch gently but the bike would lurch forward as if I'd dumped the clutch. Anyway pulled up at the first set of traffic lights and noticed that my clutch reservoir was completely empty. Got to work ok and managed to find some brake and clutch fluid to top it up with before my ride home. Just checked it again now and the level of fluid in the reservoir is dropping again. Done a search on the site and it seems its a common fault on 03's 1000's for the clutch slave cylinder seal to perish. I'm not going to get a chance to look at this fault properly until the weekend so I'm just going to continue to top the level up until then and in the mean time try and order the correct seals that i need. I would be grateful if someone could confirm that i have the right part numbers for the seals. The numbers i have are 23166-02F20 (#26) as i am assuming mine will not have this part and 23163-06B00 #24. Are these the correct part numbers? Also any advice about changing the seals would be appreciated. Thanks

I found some pics on the 650 site of a bike that had been converted from a cable to a hydraulic clutch. Strikes me as funny that we seem to want the cable version and they want the hydraulic one.
