changing derby cover
finally changed the derby cover.
just wanna share how i (a nubie) did it
1. buy 1 of these (any model you like)
2. Prepare the tools.
i used 2 carjacks, torx driver (i call it star screw driver), small - screw driver (orange 1 in the pic), and some old papers.
3. Place 1 car jack under the fin, jack it up so the fin could sit right on the jack.
4. Place the other car jack like so in the pic, get some1 to hold the bike from the right side, and lift the bike up slightly tilting to the right (to minimize oil drop when openning the primary cover).
5.Unscrew all the cover bolts. in my case, the bolts werent that dead locked so, it was easy. Few hits around the cover with your hand a few times gently to losen the cover sitting. Then slide just the tip (not even the whole tip though) of - screw driver start from the arrow in the pic. Twist the driver gently. Do this around the cover and should be easier than the first.
6. pull the cover out gently, (dont wanna break the gasket), dont let the gasket stick along the cover while pulling out the cover. Try as possible to let the gasket stay intact with the primary body.
7. If no damages on the gasket, put the new cover on. Screw the bolts hand tightly (not the whole arm strength) in the sequence like so in the pic.
8. The finish
