Honda VF 500 FII clutch leak problem

Hi,

I have a leak from the gasket around the push rod.
I can see that the gasket I have, is a gasket with a o-ring also. But the new gasket I bought today (Honda gasket) is a lip seal gasket.

Can I change the new lip seal gasket without taking out the engine?
Or can I buy a new set of gasket like the "o-ring" gasket I have on my bike today? (if yes where?)

Please help :redface:

Regards,
John

 

You will need to split the cases to properly install the new seal.

Good luck and let us know how you make out.

 

This is the system I have today.
