Fix for the Primary Cover

[Dingo1]

How do i go about getting a kit sent to new zealand

 

[dflack001]

Dingo1, sorry it's taken so long to get back to you! I've been on vacation. I ship anywhere but it's only free within the US. I believe it's about $25 and some change to ship internationally. I ship USPS Priority so you get it pretty quick! I shipped a kit to a fellow in London and he got it in 5 days! If and when you place the order I'll send you and email with the total.
Thanks!

Dingo1, are you on my "Kiwi Buell Riders" group on Facebook?

I'm Christian

Just ran out of kits guys, sorry!
I'm waiting for the next batch from the machinist. Should have them in the next week or two.
I will let you know when I have kits ready!

Just found mine is suffering from this issue as well, can I still put in the order for it when you get them or do I need to wait until they are in stock?

 

[dflack001]

Go right ahead and put the order in here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/16PZVxuprasCLpqpEYbq7XREvAl2HUpc0pardeENsd5A/viewform

I keep track of them. I will send you an email when I receive my parts and you can pay for it then.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

I have kits ready again! Going to be making some changes...I keep you all informed!

-Dave

 

[dflack001]

Made a few changes to the order form. Hopefully it's a little easier to get through...

Prices changed a little, no thanks to cost of materials.
I now have a 1 day turn around when you send your cover to me to repair.
I ship USPS Priority Mail so it's guaranteed to arrive in 3 days or less.
As long as payment clears, I will do my best to ship the same day you order.

Thanks!

Just placed an order! ....well I think, was kind of odd. PayPal asked for your first and last name since it was an international payment, even though I'm in the US... Didn't know your first and last name so put Rod Dave, it went through, so I guess that was ok.

 

[dflack001]

Hey AZ, just emailed you!

 

[dflack001]

Here's a picture of a primary cover a customer sent me to fix...

Look at those mill marks... sexy!!

 

[AZmidget91]

Should be all straightened out now Dave!

Hey dlack001,

Google brought me here just FYI. Been a member for a while but mostly just lurking for the past couple years. I burnt my clutch out due to the main bolt in the shifter breaking off and being flush with the primary cover. Had to limp it home in 3rd gear for about 20 miles. Lots of stop and go's. Thats all it took to finish off the clutch plates. Ordered barnetts clutch plate kit and got it installed. Installed the primary cover back on and tested the clutch. Thats when I noticed that 2/3rds of the "lip" was sheared off. UGH. Right now I have a couple bids on ebay for a new primary cover as I need your "fix" and i also need the shifter bolt retapped and a new bolt installed. My questions to you:

Are you still providing the same service where we send in the primary and you apply your fix and send it back?

Can you also fix my shifter bolt hole by retapping and fitting a new bolt in it? Its the main big bolt that the actual shifter pivots around.

 

[dflack001]

Yes I do refurbish broken primary covers. I think I can fix your shifter bolt too...shoot me an email with some pictures and we'll go from there. I try to have a 1 day turn around with refurbishing covers!

Dave you fixed mine and it has been great riding every day and ZERO problems thanks.

 

[dflack001]

Thank you Tmell! I appreciate the feedback! I'm really glad to hear all is well!

I also had this happen to my 2009 Buell Ulysses. I purchased the repair kit and had a machinist at work do the fix for me. After the install on the first ride the clutch knuckles were rubbing the repair plate. You mentioned a change in the instructions so this would not happen. Could you elaborate.

Boy that change was very early on. It was just a dimensional change. Shaving a few more thousandths off the area being milled. Sounds like you need to take a few more thousandths off. Were you able to work the clutch with out hearing it rub? Shoot me an email if you [email protected]
