My brand-new 2026 Sherco 300 SE Factory had the WORST clutch drag I've ever experienced on a dirt bike. The clutch wouldn't fully disengage; the bike wanted to stall with the lever pulled in, and finding neutral was nearly impossible. After weeks of troubleshooting, multiple oil changes, clutch inspections, bleeding the hydraulic system, and trying different levers, we finally found the problem! And the fix was surprisingly simple. It turns out my Sherco came with a 9 mm Brembo clutch master cylinder instead of the more common 10 mm version found on most bikes. Sherco seems to have made this change around 2025 on many of their bikes. While the smaller master cylinder can provide a lighter clutch pull, it also moves less hydraulic fluid for the same lever stroke. That means potentially less slave-cylinder travel and less clutch separation. After a trusted local mechanic helped me eliminate other possible causes, we swapped in a 10 mm Brembo master cylinder from a KTM, and the difference was dramatic. The excessive clutch drag was gone, the bike became much easier to ride, and I could finally operate the clutch without pulling the lever all the way against the handlebar. In this video, I'll walk you through everything we tried, what we discovered, and why something as small as a 1 mm difference in master-cylinder bore size can have such a big impact on clutch performance. If you've got a 2025 or newer Sherco 250 or 300 with excessive clutch drag, this is something worth investigating. I'm not saying every Sherco has this problem, but changing the master cylinder made a massive difference on mine.
