Clutch basket cushion rubbers

<< < (3/3)

exvalvesetdabbler:
I need to find a solution for this soon. Sounds like a bag of spanners with the dip stick out I remember there being some free play there when I had it apart some years ago. The spare that I had of another bike was even worse so put the original back.


Has anyone removed and replaced the rivets?

Best regards Dave

Here is how to do a CX basket >>> https://motofaction.org/motorcycles/honda-cx-gl/disassembling-cx500-cdi-clutch-basket-access-rubber-dampers/

I have removed the rivets by center punch marking and drilling on a pillar drill right through with pilot drill (1.5mm) then opening out to 5mm Dia.
As per other posts on this site I have then tapped the six rivet holes to Std M6 thread, intending to use suitable bolts with threadlock upon reassembly with new cushion rubbers.
Still currently working on fabrication of cushion rubbers.

ttr400:
You should have left the holes as they are the correct size to tap to M5.

With the M6, you may have to machine the heads thinner, as they might foul.

Finally ready for rebuild and test.
