    Hi all members,

    I recently wanted to change the countershaft sprocket and have the following questions:

    1. Do i need to remove the clutch slave cylinder in order to remove the sprocket cover?
    2. If yes, i want to change the slave cylinder gasket. I can not find anywhere online to purchase this, anyone has any idea where I can order this gasket?

    Have a good day!

    I'm just changing the chain and sprockets and noticed the clutch slave cylinder gasket tore a bit when I was removing it, how critical is it? hate to have to wait now to order a new one before I can get back on the road.

    Gasket? What gasket? There's nothing really to be sealed there just avoids metal to metal contact.

    no need to remove slave from cover. consult the service manual to find exactly which bolt holds the slave to cover so u don't remove it, and be very careful not to over-tighten bolts.

    I used some gasket silicone when refitting the slave, the little gasket is only there to keep dirt out going by what I've read, amazingly I think this is the first time the chain and sprockets have been changed on this bike, 21 years old!! 20,500 miles done.
