To delete, or not to delete, that is the question. I am finishing the clutch install now. I figured after all these years there might be a definitive answer to this? Do I keep the oil injection?

Just now seeing this. It took me an hour and a half to figure this out but I got it. I searched everywhere for this. Also for future reference for someone else. Page 103 <NOTE: Apply a light coating of lithium soap base grease to the tapered portion of the crankshaft end> My addition to this...

Anyone have tips or tricks to install the rotor? I keep sliding the rotor down the crank shaft but I cannot get it to push on without knocking off the key. Thanks

Yeah If it has rubber bushings mine has none. You are correct on it being loose. I tried to up load a gif and other formats to show the plate moving but BF would not let me. I kept getting security errors. The part number is 37F-11530-00-00 It states Balancer weight gear comp. (not sure if comp...

Thanks Larry. I have all the parts in and going to attempt to complete the bottom. I have run into an issue or maybe not. Is this normal? The plate on top has play in it. Tried to upload a .gif or webp but failed.

Still a little confused on the seals? Which one goes on the magneto side and which one goes on the clutch side? Then this vague installation step: (4-32 Page 102) • Apply the lithium soap base grease to the oil seal lips (what lips? inside? outside?). Is CRC 05037 ok to use for this? [Not to...

Anyone that has seen my post knows I bought a 1996 Yamaha blaster yes the ugly duckling yellow purple. I have spent many hours learning about this engine and have spent more on tools that I did not have to work on this engine or really the money for parts/tools. This forum in my opinion is the...

Can you see this one?

Thanks everyone. I got it. So to assemble the shift forks this is how I did it. Take the drive axle and the main axle place them together and understand what gears move up and down. It helps to twist the gears while doing this. You will be looking for the smooth parts on the gear for the fork to...

I know this is an older post but I thought I would drop this in. Several years ago an acquaintance of mine bent the frame on my 5 month old Suzuki Eiger 400. I did not have it insured at the time so I ordered a frame from the dealer and swapped all of the parts over to the new frame. The dealer...

Pictures. Lucas oil thickness from the q tip it is very viscus and tacky but oily [not runny as the picture would suggest - more like cold honey] . Very hard to see in the picture. I wiped my finger on one of the gears to get an idea of how oily they are. This may also be hard to see in the...

So the forks are not in the correct slots? I have cleaned every part by hand (first was a bath in kerosene, dried with a rag, shot with PB, compressed air to clean anything a rag would not wipe off, then a wipe with acetone, followed by a finger coating of lucas assembly lube, and a thin coating...

I see a lot of great information and videos on engine builds however all of them that I have seen go from next I will install... to OK now that I have installed... Without really explaining certain details or the process. I have made it this far and I am stumped as how do I get the shift cam and...

Got it. Thanks Awk08
