hi all Just had the clutch case slots milled out and the case bead blasted. I have all the seals, sight glass... already here for fitting after painting. Just after some recommendations for removing the main seal without damaging the case itself. Thanks, Ian
Hi Ian, as it's an oil seal, it shouldn't be a tight interference fit. Seal the case in a plastic bag (optional) and drop into a bucket of boiled hot water for 5 minutes. Then with gloves on you should be able to push the seal out by hand. Andy
Cheers Andy. Through persistence I got the bugger out. In the end I heated the casing up gently and tapped the seal from the inside out. It's a heavy duty jobby encased in a pressed steel surround. I'll fit the new seal,with the case already on the bike and use the clutch basket as a press. Pic of it before painting. Ian
This is the one fitted to my 853. Bit of a pose really but saved me fom having to lose about 15gm on a diet . Andy
Haha. Was thinking about a mag cover but then you'd need the alternator one as well! Damn them voices! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
