i made one like that, on the okuma at work like 12 years ago, sort of. similar tot he triple ones.  walls were too thin for an rd cover with a decent master IMHO, so i ditched it and went with the brembo one. the plate is the easiest way for that type of a setup to bypass the worm screw. could it be done? sure. I also made mine with a drum brake cup seal. I have it somewhere buried in a box i think.

Mark - What would be the ideal travel in mm for the clutch slave mechanism or essentially the push rod to activate/disengage the clutch on a hydraulic clutch set-up ?

8?mm i honeslty dont remember exaclty but that seems to ring a bell. I made the rod adjustable though to set the base return.

Same as the oem setup? Measured with a caliper or dial gange.
Too litte travel=dragging clutch.
Too much travel= pressure plate rubbing on inside of cover, and excessive compression of springs/ excessive force at lever.

You should be able to measure the throw from a working stock setup pretty easily and get a pretty definitive measurement.

Pull the adjuster cover, measure how much the adjuster screw travels with the clutch pulled.  Easy.
