Patrick, we are thinking along the same lines. First, I took the clevis out of the master cylinder link (outer hole, BTW) and rotated the arm to move the clutch pedal toward the seat, so I get maximum travel. Then, I put the nose in the air and bled the slave again after tapping gently with a plastic hammer. With all of that, I got 0.80" of travel where the rod meets the fork, and my clutch wouldn't disengage (even though McCleod tells me it should need only 0.35" at the bearing). This *feels* like I'm not getting enough travel at the fork. I'm really confounded.
