    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Which way up does this drive cog go? The microfiche doesn't really show a lot of detail...

One side has a "lip" or upstand on it - I didn't pay attention when I took it off! Does it go up (so when fitted it's closest to the engine cases) or down (so when fitted the lip is closest to the clutch basket.

In the pics above I have it facing what I am calling "UP"

Cheers,

Dan :)
 
Yes, for the 750 but your pic seems to show the opposite Billy - a smooth surface, no lip. In this case the lip must be facing down if that the same cog. That's the same pic I have in the manual but I just wanted to double check...

The opposite of my pics actually does make more sense as it would space the gear away from the back of the basket towards the oil pump (I think) which would seem to be what the manual says.
 
That gear looks like the idler gear for the oil pump, the top gear in the pic below. The gear rests on a bearing on the shaft. The bumps on the gear at 12 and 6 o'clock in the pic go into the slots on the back of the clutch basket. It's important to get these to line up so that your oil pump works properly. Might want to rotate the crank a rev or two once you get the clutch basket installed to make sure the oil pump gears are rotating correctly.

It's a little different to yours on the 750 but does the same job! Great idea on trying the line up & rotating the crank to be sure...
