If your not into motorcycles and working on them you might as well skip the rest of today’s blog.
I started taking the Harley apart according to the multi page encyclopedia I had on it called a shop manual. 
With that in mind, I pressed on or rather off with the main cover on the engine. That’s the new motorcycle lift holding the bike up. I got it yesterday. It’s so nice.
Then Mark came by after working 10 hours and still in his nice clothes. He wanted to see how I was doing.
Next thing you know he was into it. I just kept tossing him some clean shop towels
He picked up some tools and was off and running and before long the clutch and a little part of the transmission was apart. Hey, what’s a little tranny fluid on the floor.
I knew that kitty litter had a second purpose.
These are called clutch discs. Mark will be bringing me a tool to measure them to see if they need replacing but they might not. It might be just a loose nut…. besides me.
He thinks this nut in the middle of this clutch assembly had came loose and that might be the only problem
Mark had never worked on a Harley before. I’m glad he told me afterwards. He will bring over a few other bigger tools tomorrow early morning before going to work. Then I can torque this nut down. Then I get to put everything back together after making one gasket then replacing the transmission and primary fluid. I figure about two months or so. Mark was here for about an hour and always had a wrench in his hand and it was turning. He reminds me of Carol’s brothers – “get ur done!”
