Clutch cover replacement.

Post by kemper162 »

Wifey's Y reg V Raptor 1000 just won't stop chucking oil out of the clutch cover despite new seal and lashings of Blue Hylomar.
Looking for a TL 1000 R cover to replace it with unless anyone else can help with another solution as they appear to be as rare as rocking horse poo!!!

Can't remember exactly but was something like $75 US to refurbished my damaged cover and put in the window and fit all the ally bling bits.

Wait till the wife is out of the kitchen.
Remove cover , clean O ring , put O ring in deep freeze.
Tape down a sheet of 120 grit onto a flat work top or glass pane.
Lap the cover face flat using a figure of eight motion, take off 90 % of the worst buckling, that fixed my cover.
Dont tighten the fixing screws much more than hand tight.
My cover was put back with the old O ring and a light smear of gasket goo, make sure all surfaces are degreased first with acetone or something like it, dont get this near the O ring.
Freezing the O ring shrinks it back to its original size, they never fit correctly otherwize.
Stay calm.
