N2rock's alternative to a bike lift--worked
great!
Picture 1
First drop
the front footpeg assembly
Picture 2
You
will need to unbolt the brake line bracket
Picture 3
After
dropping the exhaust header, remove the remaining bolts to the clutch cover
and stick them into a cardboard diagram to keep track of them
Picture 4 &
Picture 5
...because there are many different sizes!
Carefully remove the clutch cover and see if the gasket is reusable
(Don't lose the two locating dowels at 10 o'clock and 4 o'clock!)
Remove one clutch bolt
at a time
Picture7
...and
insert a Yazoo clutch shim lubricated with Lubri-Plate (or other white grease)
on the end of the clutch bolt
Picture 8
Then torque the clutch bolts to the proper specification (8-12 N-m, or 71-106
in.-lb.)
Picture 9
Then reverse the process
to reassemble. The clutch is just a wee bit stiffer, but the slippage is GONE!
Nothing but pure TORQUE! Be careful downshifting--both N2rock and I lost rear
wheel traction when we released the clutch downshifting and the rear wheel grabbed.
Don't worry--we'll get used to having TORQUE ON DEMAND again!
