Well the pivot bolt for my clutch on the primary cover is stripped and broken off inside.[mad][confused]:(

So I am looking for a new one. I was curious if I could use a xb9 primary would fit on a xb12?
 
Here is a pic of my substitute!
:D

Hey, at least yours still holds oil... Mine's missing half.

It looks like that cover has seen better days. ;)

From what I have read, the cover is the same for the 9 and 12.

Is the bottom hole stripped, and the top one broken off? How did you manage that?
 
retap it a size or 2 bigger a put a bigger bolt in it thats what i would do. its going to be alot cheaper fix. go to a good hardware store (talk to the old guy) and he will know what you are trying to do and get you what you need. [up][up]:)
 
get a closed pic of what if broken...plz.
i the case itself is intact, they are many other options. ;)
 
I just put a bid on one thats on ebay right now...
I'm not to comfortable re-tapping the whole because then I have to re-tap everything else as well.....That and I can't afford to have my bike down right now...I don't know....damn thing....
 
I do have one ordered, but this one is not off yet. Plus, I want to remove the piece of bolt that is still in there. I will let you know.

Is there something wrong with yours?
 
Other then the large crack, not a whole lot.

Don't know if you can really see it, but when I dumped my bike it tore the shifter off and pushed the primary cover in, tearing it.

I'm in need of a new one, but not really concerned with the shape its in, I'm going to get it powder coated.
