<< < (2/2)

dsrtrider:
i was installing my clutch cover one time and didnt line up the pins and it cracked.  i had it welded(a few times to get it not to leak thru crack) but the person got it so hot it warped the lower corner slightly so it leaked thru the gasket.  i ended up doubling up on the gasket it that location and hasnt leaked since.  New clutch cover was like $400.

JB weld can work.  I have a fried who had a rock hit underside of his cases and made a crack in his yzf450.  He jb welded it and it hasnt leaked since.

Buddy has DRZ 400 and just JB welded a missing chunk from his left side cover. has held fine, no oil leak, but he will replace the cover when he gets some $$$$
