Screaming Yellow Zonker Posted April 18, 2007 Report Posted April 18, 2007 can anyone tell me where the case breaks when you break a chain? I am curious to see if the moron that owned the bike before me broke the chain or had a clutch failure. is it something like this? Quote
swrbansheeboy Posted April 18, 2007 Report Posted April 18, 2007 a broken chain could cause the damage in your pic but usualy it will bust out the upper part af the case above the drive gear and put a nice hole into the transmission. if thats all the damage you can find on your cases then your pretty lucky imo. i have never seen the clutch pivot arm thingy(sorry, too lazy to look up the actual name on partsfish...) break out like that. i would think it would have had to get something caught behind it and i dont realy think theres enough clearance for that to happen but i havent been all around the world so it could happen...does it leak?

Screaming Yellow Zonker Posted April 18, 2007 Author Report Posted April 18, 2007 it was leaking but I chipped off the old JB Weld and cleaned around the damaged area then re JB Welded it. so no leak for the last 2 days it has been fully assembled. Quote
