Can this be done? 1981 Suzuki RM 250 think it would be awesome if this could be done... Margura aftermarket?

I'd be more concerned about keeping the main bearing from spinning in the case than a hydraulic clutch. That bike had an easy clutch pull. Why do you want to change it?

Romero Motos http://www.romeromotos.com/ in Barcelona did one for Bultacos so it has been done before, not sure about an RM though.

Magura Hymec could work, the one that have a pulling slavecylinder you use instead of wire.
If they dont list your bike, you can measure the length of pulling rod you need and compare with a listed bike

Dunno really, your right it is actually really easy for a vintage bike.. but it would be cool f it had a hydro clutch.. I don’t want it to look all bulky like the pic above tho...
