    Cracked Clutch Hub/Basket 1150-pics

    Found this today. Wondering if I can graft a new/used basket onto the HD backing plate primary gear? I have a local welder who's a go to guy for local flat track racers.

    Problem is I'm doing a track day on the 23rd of this month. I do have a few used baskets. Any thoughts? Thanks.

    The basket his history as even if you coils weld it it would need machining to get. Ack to an acceptable form. Wonder if you can drill the rivets and salvage the he backing plate?

      Yes, that is what I was thinking. Thought I read somewhere that it's possible to do.

              Hey Ray,

              I thought all the 1150 stuff was locked up and buried for future generations.

              How are the dents in the basket from the fibers? Any pics?

                It's a good hub, Carter, one I would put in my own bike. And I am PICKY about what parts I put in my bikes. Ray.

                    Thanks Ray,

                    I got the pics on my new phone that I don't know how to use yet. Looks pretty good dent wise. Lots of heat on the welds, looks like the spare one I have. Even though it's welded, the basket is rocking a hair.

                    My starter clutch shot another pin almost out, and I found a few hard bits in the pan. One bit managed to gall one of the transmission gears, but I got a spare tranny freshened up at Pearson in the mail last week

                    Thanks for the suggestion Ray.
