I was gonna re-torque the flywheel sprocket nut while I was performing a service and I phoned the (not so) local dealer for some gaskets etc. 2 off primary inspection cover gaskets 2 off gear shifter shaft seals 1 off main primary cover gasket They have told me that their records do not show a gasket between the main primary cover and engine casing. My question is : Can this be right? Surely not metal to metal or gasket sealing compound. Can some of you guys advise? |

You mean they told you there is no gasket between the primary cover and engine case? If so Turn around and go to another dealer ASAP. Yes there is a gasket and it is kind of a rubberized steel, I have re-used this type about 4 times without any trouble so far, but take great care not to kink or bend it ((Editied for spelling error)) (Message edited by spiderman on April 26, 2007) |

I second that. I just replaced my Stator and there most certainly is a gasket between the Primary cover and the engine case. I'm not sure where that tech would have been looking, but it sure wasn't a parts book. |

Cheers for the info. I thought there must have been a problem but I can't access my workshop manual / bike at the moment to check. I think I'll see if I can get my hands on a parts manual. Thanks again. |
