Gentlemen:
While on vacation this summer I loaned my car to a friend. When I returned to the island the car wouldn't shift gears. The friend hasn't fessed up to anything - but I really wonder if he knew how to drive a stick. A few months ago I did a rebuild on the M/C and slave, thinking I might've had air in the lines. After bleeding the slave I still couldn't get enough pressure on the clutch fork - even with the slave push rod all the way out. Today I took out the engine and found that the throw out bearing was completely worn down.
Now, I had the clutch replaced when I had the 1275 installed in April. The throw out bearing was replaced at that time.
Any thoughts as to what might be wrong?
