    You can make your own clutch rod from any piece of rod you have handy. So you can try any length.

    I always find it a little illogical, so think carefully about it. When your clutch is new (I assume it's a new clutch), the pressure plate fingers sit closer in toward the flywheel, so the clutch fork sits further away from the slave cylinder. So be sure that there is still some stroke left to compress the slave when the clutch is released, otherwise you might get issues as the clutch wears.

    If it is properly bled, double check that master and slave aren't broken either.

    I need a working 4AGE bottom end. Pref smallport GZE, but all others considered. Also complete motors.

    Slaves and masters are the same sizes I'm quite sure.

    Check your adjustment at the pedal end is my suggestion
