I just had the financially unpleasant experience of my VW GTI's slave cylinder (can we still say that?) failing, and, once you get into the tranny, replacing the clutch. A deuce + later, I have a brand-new clutch system in an 80k mile car that my daughter drives and puts a new dent in every couple of months.Got me thinking about my '76 T3. Runs great. 46,000 miles. Clutch, presumably original, works fine. One hiccup a few years ago required me to fiddle with what's accessible without "crabbing". No dealer who will work on this bike within many, many miles. How much life do you think I have left? I can do lots of stuff myself, but tranny work is beyond my capabilities or interest.

All I'll say here is, you're slightly concerned about using the word 'slave', then you go on to use 'tranny' twice in the same post!!
