Bearing Replacement
Main drive gear needle bearings
Both main drive gear needle bearings must be installed
to a correct depth within the main drive gear. The correct
depth is obtained with a main drive gear bearing tool
(JIMS part No. 37842-91). This tool also installs the oil
seal. If this tool is not available, a press is required.
If the special tool is not available, measure the depth of
both bearings before removing them.
Replace both main drive gear needle bearings as a set.
CAUTION
Never reinstall a main drive gear needle
bearing, as it is distorted during removal.
1. Remove the oil seal (Figure 102) from the clutch side
of the main drive gear.
2. If the special tool is not used, measure and record the
depth of both bearings.
3. Support the main drive gear in a press and press out
one needle bearing. Then turn the gear over and press out
the opposite bearing.
4. Clean the gear and its bearing bore in solvent and dry
them thoroughly.
5. Apply transmission oil to the bearing bore in the main
drive gear and to the outer surface of both bearings.
NOTE
Install both needle bearings with their man-
ufacturer’s name and size code facing out.
6A. Install the bearings with the special tool as follows:
a. The special tool has two different length ends. The
tool’s long side (A, Figure 103) is for the clutch
side of the main drive gear (Figure 101). The tool’s
short side (B, Figure 103) is for the transmission
side of the main drive gear (Figure 100).

tion tool, use a suitable mandrel to press in the bearing to
the depth recorded in Step 2.
7. Install a
new
oil seal (Figure 102) into the clutch side
of the main drive gear.
Mainshaft bearing
The left side mainshaft bearing (5, Figure 97) is
pressed into the transmission case. If the transmission
case is installed in the frame, a transmission main bearing
remover set (JIMS part No. 1720) (Figure 105), or equiv-
alent, is required to remove the main drive gear bearing. If
the transmission has been removed, use a press to remove
the main drive gear bearing.
Whenever the main drive gear is removed, the
mainshaft drive gear bearing is damaged and must be re-
placed at the same time.
CAUTION
Failure to use the correct tools to install the
bearing will cause premature failure of the
bearing and related parts.
1. Remove the main drive gear from the transmission
case as described in this chapter.
2. Assemble the special tool set onto the mainshaft bear-
ing following the manufacturer’s instructions. Then
tighten the bolt and nut slowly to pull the mainshaft bear-
ing from the transmission case.
3. Clean the bearing bore and dry it with compressed air.
Check the bore for nicks or burrs. Check the snap ring
groove for damage.
NOTE

The carburetor’s purpose is to supply and atomize fuel,
and mix it in correct proportions with the air drawn in
through the air intake. At the primary throttle opening
(idle), a small amount of fuel is siphoned through the pilot
jet by the incoming air. As the throttle is opened further,
the air stream begins to siphon fuel through the main jet
and needle jet. The tapered needle increases the effective
flow capacity of the needle jet as it is lifted, and occupies
progressively less of the area of the jet. At full throttle, the
carburetor venturi is fully open and the needle is lifted far
enough to permit the main jet to flow at full capacity.
The choke circuit is a starting enrichment valve system.
The choke knob under the fuel tank on the left side of the
engine opens an enrichment valve; rather than closing a
butterfly in the venturi area as on some carburetors. In the
open position, the slow jet discharges a stream of fuel into
the carburetor venturi to enrich the mixture when the en-
gine is cold.
The accelerator pump circuit reduces engine hesitation
by injecting a fine spray of fuel into the carburetor intake
passage during sudden acceleration.
Removal
1. Remove the air filter and backplate as described in this
chapter.
2. Remove the fuel tank as described in this chapter.
3. Loosen the locknut (A, Figure 12, typical) and discon-
nect the starting enrichment valve cable from the mount-
ing bracket (B, Figure 12, typical). Move the end of the
cable out of the mounting bracket.
4. Roll the rubber boots (Figure 13) off the throttle cable
adjusters.
5. At the handlebar, loosen both control cable adjuster
locknuts (A, Figure 14), then turn the cable adjusters (B)
clockwise
as far as possible to increase cable slack.
6. There are two different throttle cables. Label the two
cables at the carburetor before disconnecting them. One is
the throttle control cable (A, Figure 15) and the other is
the idle control cable (B).
7. Disconnect the fuel supply hose (Figure 16) from the
carburetor fitting.
8. Twist and pull the carburetor off the seal ring and in-
take manifold.
9. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the carburetor fit-
ting.

12. Inspect the carburetor seal ring on the intake mani-
fold for wear, hardness, cracks or other damage. Replace
it if necessary.
13. If necessary, service the intake manifold as described
under
Intake Manifold
in this chapter.
14. Cover the intake manifold opening.
Installation
1. If removed, seat the seal ring onto the intake manifold.
Make sure it is correctly seated to avoid a vacuum leak.
2. Route the starting enrichment valve cable between the
cylinders and toward its mounting bracket on the left side.
3. Connect the idle cable to the carburetor as follows:
a. The idle cable has the small spring (A, Figure 18)
on the end of the cable.
b. Insert the idle cable sheath into the rear cable
bracket guide on the carburetor (B, Figure 18).
c. Attach the end of the idle cable to the throttle wheel
(C, Figure 18).
4. Connect the throttle cable to the carburetor as follows:
a. Insert the throttle cable sheath into the front cable
bracket guide on the carburetor.
b. Attach the end of the throttle cable to the throttle
wheel.
5. Operate the hand throttle a few times. Make sure the
throttle wheel operates smoothly with no binding. Also
make sure both cable ends are seated squarely in their ca-
ble bracket guides and in the throttle wheel.
CAUTION
The carburetor must fit squarely onto the in-
take manifold. If it is misaligned, it may
damage the intake manifold seal ring, re-
sulting in a vacuum leak.
6. Align the carburetor squarely with the intake manifold
(Figure 19), then push it into the manifold until it bot-
toms. Position the carburetor so it sits square and vertical
with the manifold.
7. Connect the vacuum hose to the carburetor fitting.
Make sure it is seated correctly.
8. Slide a
new
hose clamp over the fuel supply hose, then
connect the fuel hose to the hose fitting on the carburetor
(Figure 16).
9. Insert the starting enrichment valve cable into the
mounting bracket (B, Figure 12), then tighten the locknut
(A) securely.
10. Before installing the fuel tank, recheck the idle and
throttle cable operation. Open and release the hand throt-
tle. Make sure the carburetor throttle valve opens and
closes smoothly. Make sure both cables are routed prop-
