Could anyone please advise on how to split the clutch side casing without damaging it. It's a 796 by the way with a wet slipper clutch... All bolts removed having double checked but having no luck separating from the crankcase.. Thanks..
I assume this pic is before you removed the bolts? The casing is held in place with the bolts and threebond gasket sealant, you need a rubber mallet or equivalent and give the casing a good few whacks to break the sealant. Youll need to to remove the sealant from the clutch and crank cases once removed and reapply when ready to refit.
A good rubber covered deadblow hammer is likely to be more effective. Three bond sets quite hard so a rubber mallet might prove too soft.
Ha... You guys don't miss much... Yes pic was before bolts all removed... Lol.. Thank you all.. off to get a rubber hammer as we speak..
