d. Install the outer snap ring (clutch side). Make

sure the snap ring is correctly seated in the

87

groove.

CAUTION

When pressing the bearing into the

housing, support the outer snap ring.

The force required to press the bear-

ing into the inner primary housing

may force the snap ring out of its

groove, damaging the housing.

e. Support the inner housing and outer snap

ring.

f. Press the bearing into the inner housing until

it seats against the snap ring.

88

g. Install the inner snap ring (Figure 86). Make

sure the snap ring is seated correctly in the

groove.

h. Install a new oil seal as described in Step 7.

7. Inspect the inner primary cover oil seal (Figure

85) for excessive wear, tearing or other damage. To

replace the oil seal, perform the following:

a. Remove the oil seal with a wide-blade screw-

driver.

b. Clean the oil seal bore.

c. Pack the oil seal lip with a waterproof bearing

grease.

89

d. Position the oil seal with its closed side facing

out. Press in the new oil seal until its outer

surface is flush with the edge of the bearing

bore (Figure 87).

8A. On 1999-2000 models, check the primary chain

adjuster rack screws (Figure 88) for looseness.

Tighten the screws, if necessary.

8B. On 2001 models, check the primary chain ad-

juster rack screws

(Figure

89) for looseness.

Tighten the screws, if necessary.

NOTE

In Step 1, apply the RTV sealant to the

inner surface of the two bolt holes.

Figure 90 shows only the bolt hole lo-

cation and is pointing to the outer sur-

face.

1. Thoroughly clean the inner surface of the two

lower bolt holes (Figure 90) of the inner cover. Ap-

ply a light coat of RTV to these inner surfaces.

2. On all models except FXDWG, if the shift lever

sleeve was removed, perform the following:

a. Install a new O-ring (Figure 91) onto the

92

outer groove.

b. Apply a light coat of RTV to the sleeve (Fig-

ure 92).

c. Pull the sleeve into the inner cover until the

grooves are visible on the outer side of the in-

ner cover.

d. Install the clip into the second groove and

tighten the bolt.

3. Install the O-ring (Figure 78) onto the engine

crankcase shoulder.

4. To prevent the mainshaft splines (Figure 93)

from damaging the inner cover oil seal as it passes

93

over, wrap the mainshaft splines with tape.

5. If removed, install the drive belt prior to install-

ing the inner housing.

6. On all models except the FXDWG, insert the in-

ner shift shaft (Figure 94) through the collar and in-

stall the inner housing.

7. Align the inner housing with the engine and

transmission and install it.

8. Apply a bead of RTV sealant around the outer

surface of the two bottom bolt holes (Figure 90).
