Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Original
2 piece clutch cover
sandblaster:
On goes the cut down clutch cover (Now a inner clutch cover)
On goes the outer clutch cover and adapter:
sandblaster:
On goes the kick lever and the rear brake lever
Just barely...
While it does not rub, it is close, so I may slightly bent my brake lever out, then again probably not cause I'm lazy.
I also found some hidden dirt and grease on my bike.... I was shocked :-o
Foxx4Beaver:
that looks good, pedal is a little close....I zip-tied a piece of inner tube to the back side of my brake pedal to help create a cushion/buffer.
it's nothing pretty, nothing fancy...but better than metal hitting metal if it takes a hit.
Goat:
Where did the dirt and grease come from!? It's not like you ride it lol
That is a snug fit but looks factory. Nice work.

I like the idea of the cushion.
I originally had another 1/8" of clearance from the inside of the rear brake lever to the outside of the clutch cover.
The problem is, the thinner I make the adapter, the thinner the bolt tangs are.
If I go to thin the bolt tangs will strip easily so I'm trying to find a balance...
Might even add a spacer to the inside rear brake lever and push it out a bit :-)
