CB750 K4 Installing outer clutch drum

(1/3) > >>

royhall:
I'm sure this has been asked many times, but here goes. The clutch outer drum on the K4 requires pulling off with a hub puller. I managed that bit no problem, the question is how does it go back on? Have got it on with gentle mallet tapping but it wont go that last 7mm or so. Is there a cunning plan for doing this, as I don't like hammering against bearings ever.

Thought it might be the kickstarter gears, but they are definitely engaged.

Thanks yet again.

royhall:
What about making a spacer and using the nut to wind it on. Would that work. Any ideas welcome. Cheers.

Trigger:
It looks lined up with the kickstart cog and can't see a 7mm gap at the rear of the basket, any further back and the cog to the basket will be touching . I just turn the engine a few rotations and push the basket in. Am I missing some thing after a hard day at the office ?

royhall:
Shouldn't the end of splines on the drum line up with the end of the splines on the shaft? Both the shaft and the drum measure 20mm so would have thought so.

Looked at all 3 of the major manuals and they all describe pulling the drum off the shaft with a hub puller, then go on to just say re-fit the drum. Not very helpful really as what needs to be hub pullered off does not push back on by hand (unless your a candidate for Worlds Strongest Man).

Trigger. I don't think the photo I posted gives a good impression of the space behind the drum. Although the cogs are engaged, they don't seem to be fully home. The thing wont budge at all from this position and I really don't want to start hammering against the bearings.

Will post a better picture later today. Any and all ideas most welcome.

Cheers All.

Trigger:
Here is what one should look like, I have taken the pictures with the basket fully home on the shaft out of the case. Hope this helps, can push it on and off with a bit of force by hand ;D.

Your picture looks like it needs a little tap with a copper hammer ;)
