Hi RPM
I second Duncan’s diagnosis. Exactly the same problem on my old special. I ended up with a 7/8” master cylinder.
However I don’t like the idea that the cams are full out and with 1/8” slave cylinder travel. It gives no room for bedding in or wear. Have you cleaned up the drums a bit too much? I would check the drum diameter. What thickness are the linings?
Cheers
