Can this be fixed up ? I'm going to get an Oberon one anyway but is there a fix up that'll get me through a couple of weeks waiting for the new one? It's leaking but still works. A little too much oil around the rear wheel for my liking though.

Anyone had success chasing KTM for a new one using "Not fit for purpose" type trade practise mumbo jumbo?

I've just fitted an Oberon one, it took forever to bleed and still doesn't properly release the plates. So when cold it stalls when you put it in gear. Maybe it just needs time to bed in but not impressed

Did you bleed from bottom up and/or bleed master cylinder?

Mine went and left me stranded.
Luckily was a week after id returned from a 1000 mile tour so was pretty thankful.

Anyway.

It seems like this is a part that should've been redesigned and recalled. I don't know what other countries have in ways of legal help but I believe in 'straya if a part is clearly shit like these Magura slaves are you can argue for free replacement.

Long weekend. Leaky bike. Spewin'
