Clutch Cover Gasket:

ec4) OEM CLUTCH COVER GASKETS. A must-replace item anytime you remove the clutch cover (right side of the bike) for periodic cleaning or clutch plate adjustment, repair, or replacement.

OEM clutch cover gaskets are made from a standard duty, graphite impregnated paper material. We recommend the use of the aftermarket hi-performance paper gaskets which are designed to slightly swell in the presence of petroleum products (fuel or oil), thus creating a super-tight, leak-proof flange seal.

Clutch Pressure Plate Pushrod Actuating Shaft and Parts:

The pushrod actuating shaft emerges from the clutch cover and is what the clutch cable is attached to and acts upon. Although it rarely wears out, some of the operating parts can become worn and should be inspected carefully and renewed during a major clutch overhaul, as well as the oil seal where the shaft emerges from the clutch cover.

Clutch Drum and Basket:

The "outer basket" is actually known as the PRIMARY DRIVEN GEAR and is the largest part in your clutch system. This part rarely needs replacement and is not normally removed during a typical clutch "service procedure"----meaning a clutch friction disc and drive-plate replacement procedure----unless the splined "fingers" (which accept the friction plate outer "tabs") become fractured or broken.

You should, however, carefully inspect along the edges of the slots where the friction plate tabs engage in this basket, and remove and sharp or rough edges to insure the chatter-free operation of your discs.

Likewise with the clutch drum, or what is technically described as the CLUTCH BOSS, (or the "inner basket") and which the teeth of the metal drive plates engage with. Again, normally this cast aluminum piece does not need replacing, although it's always a good idea to inspect and smooth the edges of the slots where the drive plate teeth engage.



Outer Clutch Basket Parts:

CLUTCH SYSTEM TOOLS:

NOTE: SOME OF THE FOLLOWING TOOLS ARE AVAILABLE FOR RENTAL!!: some tools are a one-time or infrequent use tool, so it may be more economical for you to rent them from us, rather than to purchase outright. Please see the “rental” section within the THE TOOLBOX section of our catalog at:

http://xjbikes.com/forums/index.php?threads/xj-parts-catalog-section-p-the-toolbox.44630

and review the availability and procedures in the TOOL RENTAL section.

NOTE: if the threaded holes in the engine case have minor damage, they can be easily salvaged with a thread-chaser/tap:


HCP2399 Aftermarket THREAD CHASER AND CLEAN-UP TAP, made from a high-speed titanium nitride coated steel. For the following threaded holes listed below, as well as many other areas of the bike. This 6 x 1.00 pitch is a very common sized thread.
$ 9.95

HCP28170 Aftermarket thread tap or EZ-out extractor TAP HANDLE, featuring offset tap handles and fully adjustable head for all m3-m12 size taps and size 0 to ½” extractors. This is the proper way to hold a tap or extractor to insure that the force is directed straight down and doesn’t “wobble” as you are cutting, reaming, or extracting. Much better than using pliers or vise-grips to hold the tool……..
$ 17.95



NOTE: always use a proper thread-cutting oil or lubricant before using thread taps! Thin motor oils work fine when merely doing a "clean-up" thread chase; a real cutting fluid should be obtained if a threaded bore needs to be truly cut:

HCP2402 Aftermarket machinist-grade professional THREAD CUTTING FLUID, for use when cutting into aluminum or other soft metal. 4-ounce non-aerosol can.
$ 8.95

HCP2403 Aftermarket machinist-grade professional THREAD CUTTING FLUID, for use when cutting into steel or other ferrous metals. 4-ounce non-aerosol can.

$ 49.95

HCP10543 Aftermarket clutch drum HOLDER TOOL. In order to install the clutch drum retaining nut HCP3204 above, you have to lock the clutch drum and prevent it from turning while the nut is torqued. This tool uses a re-cycled drive plate to hold the basket while the nut is being removed or installed, thus spreading the load more evenly and equally than the HCP9237 tool listed above. Light-duty design is not recommended for shop use, but it works just fine for periodic (individual) use. Fits all XJ550, XJ650, XJ700, XJ750, and XJ900 models.
$ 29.95


HCP10530 Aftermarket standard-depth 30mm SOCKET, 1/2"-drive thick-wall impact socket necessary to remove or install the HCP3204 clutch hub nut. Black, 6-point, 1-/2" drive.
$ 13.95

Most people have the standard 3/8" drive ratchet wrenches in their tool kits already, and the larger 1/2" drive sockets can be used with those ratchets with this converter/adapter. Chrome-plated, 1/2" male drive, 3/8" female receiver.
$ 12.95



Gasket Adhesives and Removers:

b4) Aftermarket pure SILICONE GREASE----this is the proper product to use when installing any rubber-based o-ring or seal or paper gasket. Silicone doesn't affect rubber, provides good seal lubrication, can also be used as a "glue" to hold gaskets and seals in place during installation, and to aid in the re-assembly of components.

HCP28407 Aftermarket o-ring, oil seal, and gasket installation pure SILICONE GREASE. This small 5-gram (1/6-oz) snap-open "pillow packet" is enough for a few small oil seals, dozens of o-rings, and the like. Each:
$ 4.95

HCP1714 Aftermarket o-ring, oil seal, and gasket installation pure SILICONE GREASE. This generous 14-gram (1/2-oz.) tub goes a long way, because just like Brylcreem, "just a little dab will do ya'!" Each:
$ 9.95



HCP3120 Aftermarket black GASKET MAKER, large family-sized 3.8 ounce squeeze tube. Enough to do about a few dozen gaskets! I'm sure it works well in other applications. This is for use on the half-moon end plugs (HCP1619 for non-YICS applications) and the molded-in end plugs (part of the actual rubber gasket) on YICS engines. Do not use on the paper or rubber valvecover gasket itself! Each:
$ 11.95

HCP3120A Aftermarket black GASKET MAKER, smaller 1/2-ounce squeeze tube. Enough to do a few gaskets! It's the smallest size offered. I'm sure it works well in other applications. This is for use on the half-moon end plugs (HCP1619 for non-YICS applications) and the molded-in end plugs (part of the actual rubber gasket) on YICS engines. Do not use on the paper or rubber valvecover gasket itself! Each:
$ 7.95


HCP25092 Aftermarket high-performance aviation-grade, black, non-hardening GASKET MAKER, 1.5 ounce squeeze tube. This special high-performance sealant is ideal for use on engine case covers as a “problem solver” material which will compensate for poor machining tolerances or the slight warpage that can occur over time on precision-fit pieces. A very thin film of this material is all that is needed! Each:
$ 8.95




Torque Wrenches:

hks12) Yep, a TORQUE WRENCH sure can be a pain to use, especially in tight, cramped spaces, and so their use is one the easiest ways to tell a professional mechanic from a wanna-be. The proper torque values for a fastener were not determined by whim-and-fancy, but by engineering principles and mechanical fastener requirements. All it takes is one fastener snapping or stripping out of a threaded aluminum case, and you'll find that the cost and use of an accurate torque wrench is "cheap" compared to the cost of solving the problem!

HCP9972 Aftermarket precision CLICKER TORQUE WRENCH, 3/8" drive head, 20-200 inch-pounds (1.5 to 16 foot pounds), ratchet head and handle made of hardened steel for accuracy and durability. Scale is marked in both metric and SAE torque values for convenience. Comes in a plastic storage case. A good quality, affordable torque wrench for small fastener, low-torque applications. NOTE: please resist the temptation to "cheat" on low-value torque fasteners by using a high-value torque wrench (like the HCP9973 below) to set such fasteners. Torque wrenches, by their design, are only accurate within a certain range of torque values, and totally inaccurate above and below their designated range of values.
