Re: Clutch rod seal

["Kyle Rocke" <kyle.rocke@xxxxxxxxx>]

I had my clutch rod seal changed when they replaced my clutch rod. It broke!
You'll need to take the clutch rod out in order to put in a new seal. Just
put the bike on the side stand, take off the clutch cover, scrape and
replace clutch cover gasket, take out clutch rod, poke out clutch rod seal
from inside of clutch cover, replace clutch rod seal, replace clutch rod,
replace clutch cover, and you're done.

Unfortunately ....... you can't just lift up the clutch rod, take out the
seal, replace it and then put the clutch rod back. Would have been nice if
you could.

I'll send a pic of my broken rod to the site.
