    I have a 2021 WR250F here in Australia , I have used a Magura hydraulic clutch on my old WR250F but after installing a Rekluse CX3 Radius auto clutch its not even neccesary to have a lever . I have a hydraulic LH master cylinder and brake lever on the LHS plumbed directly to the rear brake with brake pedal removed . It is amazing how good it is and takes the workload off the rider when racing .

      It either has air in the system or you need to shim the slave cylinder. Look at the slave cylinder while you pull the lever. The slave cylinder rod should start moving immediately when you move the lever. If it doesn’t there is air in the system.
