Since there is both a .70 and a .75 inch diameter clutch master
cylinder available, am I right in thinking that the .75 is the better
way to go?  Seems like the .75 would be better, because it would
displace more fluid, therefore giving more clutch throw.  Right?  That
seems to make sense.  Stroke would obviously be the same, so if bore is
greater, then displaced fluid should be greater, therefore the slave
cylinder would move further and you'd get more clutch throw.  But why
is it that Triumph switched from the .75 to the .70?
