You will have to pull the outer primary, compensator sprocket, and clutch hub to get to it.

If you don't already have a manual for your bike I would highly suggest getting one.

Actually the procedure for his compensating sprocket and clutch hub is different than TD's. TD has a different size compensating nut that has a different tork setting. TD also has a splined shaft out of his transmission instead of the tapered with a woodruff key.

The woodruff key ain't so bad. Just use a drop of super glue to hold it into place when you put the clutch hub back on.

I know what you mean!!!!!!!!!
Every time I put Tina on the jack I get separation anxiety!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hate it when she ain't ready to ride. It doens't matter if I ride her or not but she must be ready to go.

it might be different if we lived up where TD does.
He has several months of just looking at his.

Just yanking your chain TD.

That's true. Winter is riding time here, and summer is too hot to ride or work on it. TD has half a year to tinker!
