Clutch rebuild and upgrade

[Buckster]

So today I pressed apart the clutch basket and replaced the clutch hub bearing and pressed it all back together.

Here it is all pressed apart.

New bearing pressed in and retaining ring fitted.

Inner hub pressed in and retaining ring fitted.

Time for lunch then fit the new clutch pack.

That press looks prestine...is it new ?

Not going to lie but at times I enjoy more buying a new tool than parts for a repair or the repair itself...lol

I don’t use it very often, in fact it is only the second time, plus I keep it partially disassembled as I have no where to permanently put it.

Tend to agree w/ Marcel....that press is a handy piece of equipment to have in your tool arsenal...

Clutch is fully assembled, I will put it back in the bike in the morning, I had to go out and help a friend with a problem with his electric garage door this afternoon, the friction pads on the Barnet clutch are much wider than the oem. It all went together nicely, quite an easy job really. The press is one I bought on Amazon, it was a return apparently and was been resold for less than £80 so I snapped it up and have not regretted it.
