Hi all,

While im changing the inner bearing, what else should i replace ?

does anything need to be done to the clutch plates ?

replace all seals ?

coat the plates with oil before installing ?

basically details that are not in the service manual.

and whats the best source for parts ?

thanks!!!!!

 

1958 sporty or what?

 

How many miles on bike? How does that drive belt look?

 

my bad!
08 RK, 40k, six speed, noise coming from inner bearing,

 

08 RK id look into the S&S one piece IPB then you dont need any special tools to change it out. Wouldnt hurt to pull out your clutch plates for a look and wash out all the nooks of the inside of the clutch housing. Depending on how you ride the clutch should be fine. Mine has 118k on it and its like new. Make sure your auto primary tensioner isnt making your primary chain overly tight. I believe there should be like 5/8 slack in the chain. If overly tight then it can take out the IPB. Do you have any issues with your compensator. If you do now is the time to change it. Is your stator plug weeping oil cause that can be addressed now also. Cant think of anything else right now.

 

Clutch shout be fine unless you abuse it...primary chain tensioner, Screaming eagle compensator would be upgrades...

 

Cant wait till Darkhorse releases their new compensator!

 

im original owner, and have adjusted clutch three times, is there a minimum wear indicator on clutch plates.

whats the best source for parts ? original or aftermarket ?

 

Other than the IPB. OEM is the way to go.

 

You seen the the straight sprocket from evolution industries? That's the way to go.imo
