Dave, you realize that hydraulic clutches are on / off unless I'm mistaken and with cable operated clutches you can purposely slip the clutch and let the power in smoothly for better drive out of corners or when drag racing against a biker. My Aprillia RS250 has a cable operated clutch and that's around 60 bhp to the rear wheel.

It isn't for me, anyway. I am quite happy with my cable actuated clutches and strong man-hands.

I see, my bad. 
So, are there many hyd clutch conversions for Lambrettas? I remember one from WCLW but it required welding to the crankcase side cover to fit it.
And what are the best master cylinders for these?
