| + | Well here we are with the last installment of the trans already. Getting the shifter on (I need to pull the peg out of my old one). \\ | ||
| + | Get your drive chain around the sprocket loose. Yeah you can wait and install the cover first but you make more work for yourself?? \\ | ||

| + | \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | Get the cover on swearing at yourself for getting fingerprints all over it. Get the bolts in and try to clean up the cover a little bit. \\ | ||

| + | Kickstarter spring... just muscle it on....I grabbed the outer end with a pair of vice grips and the really helped a lot. \\ | ||
| + | You want that spring under a little tension. Get the kickstarter on with the pinch bolt. \\ | ||

| + | |||
| + | (L) Get the chain around your rear sprocket and hook your master link with the CLOSED ROUNDED end of the master IN THE DIRECTION OF TRAVEL. \\ | ||
| + | That means if you hooked it on the bottom side of the sprocket the CLOSED END should be towards the REAR of the motorcycle!! Got it??. \\ | ||
| + | (R) Adjust your chain etc. I shouldn't have to tell you how to do this...look in your manual. \\ | ||
| + | Grab your coffee and go back over to the left side of the motorcycle. \\ | ||
| + | Get your 2 threaded 1/4 rods that you used in your clutch compressor and put them in the cases like this. \\ | ||
| + | {{:techtalk:ref:svcproc:1965_xlch_tranny_pic43_by_scottericsonon.jpg?direct&400|}} {{:techtalk:ref:svcproc:1965_xlch_tranny_pic44_by_scottericsonon.jpg?direct&400|}} \\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | Slip your new gasket over the rods. \\ | ||
| + | Oh, before I forget, get your clutch cable threaded back into your primary cover and hook it up. \\ | ||
| + | {{:techtalk:ref:svcproc:1965_xlch_tranny_pic45_by_scottericsonon.jpg?direct&400|}} {{:techtalk:ref:svcproc:1965_xlch_tranny_pic46_by_scottericsonon.jpg?direct&400|}} \\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | Slip your primary cover over your 2 threaded rods making sure you leave a tiny gap. In other words don't seat it all the way. \\ | ||
| + | Get all your screws started using the gap to see that they go thru the gasket correctly.. \\ | ||
| + | Once they are all started, go ahead and GENTLY tap on the primary cover with the heel of your hand to seat it. \\ | ||
| + | Once it's seated, snug up a couple screws and then replace the threaded rod with the proper screws. \\ | ||
| + | Tighten these all up using a criss-cross kinda pattern so as to not warp the primary cover. \\ | ||
| + | {{:techtalk:ref:svcproc:1965_xlch_tranny_pic47_by_scottericsonon.jpg?direct&400|}} \\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | Adjust your clutch per the FSM, fill her up with oil, put your footpegs and pipes back on and go bang some gears! \\ | ||
| + | You're done!! | ||
| + | |||
| + | Actually I'd take it pretty easy on the trans for your first couple rides and make sure I went back and retightened a handfull of bolts after a few hot/cold cycles of the motor. I hope you found this thread both entertaining and informative. I know I sure had a blast doing it as well as learning a lot. Maybe it will inspire some of you to write a little something about your own project. Now get out there and enjoy your ironhead whether you're going out for a ride...turning some wrenches.....planning some future mods or just daydreaming about past rides!! | ||
