Clutch basket removal tool?
Taking out my clutch basket to install billet oil pump cover.
In the Kawi manual it sezs you need a special tool to keep the ring gear aligned.
Do i need this tool or is there another way to keep it from getting out of place?

Stu look at Shanes build thread and you will find the answer you are looking for as well as the part number for the tool to do the job with. Hope that helps.

The clutch holder tool is 57001-1243

Well i looked through where he replaced his clutch plates and removed the HUB, but did not see where he removed the BASKET. I have a home made hub removal tool already.
I know what the Kawi tool part number is,but looking for a cheaper way than to spend $120 for the tool.(57001-1671)

Doesn't an aftermarket company like Motion Pro or Moose make something like that? Not sure about fitment for the 14, but they've got some univeral basket pliers for dirtbikes -- I don't know, maybe I'm just high

bikes that have done oil pressure mods or run a thicker oil can have a high risk of warping the stock oil pump cover as its cast and thin.
that's pretty much it.
Stu, i forgot what brand tool i had, but i know its the same one we use on busas.

Compton I run 20 w 50 with Lucas stabilizer too. Am I at risk with my oil choices?

I really dont have a yes or no answer for you. On my bike i put on a oil pressure gauge so i knew where i was at. I'd just take it easy revving the bike when tis still cold with the thicker oils.

Thanks Compton I am easy on all my toys when cold,rough on valvesprings. I must admit you got me on the riders age thread,thought you would be a little older judging by your replies and knowlege. That's a complement not a slight in any way.

Reason for the oil pump cover is, i installed a higher pressure oil valve.

Take a total of 4 old steels and frictions, or more if you like. Rivet a steel to friction. They should slot down the basket is one for the back, one for the front. Air tool? Breaker bar w/ screwdriver shaft [pick a hole] at the rear disc and have at it? Motion pro is backyard me can nick the basket you're not careful making a simple tool for a simple task.
