Ken, removing that 'pivot bolt' didn't help the possibility of getting the shaft out. Looks like all the bushings and seals on the clutch lever side need to come out, so I decided there isn't enough play to warrant doing it. The forks don't show much wear either. I was going to remove the shaft to clean it all and regrease (MoS2 or lithium?). New release bearing & clips, rear oil seal, guide sleeve looks fine, and that segment looks like it should be ready to go. -Dana- KENWILFY@AOL.COM wrote: > > I think I also remember a small bolt that needs to be removed that locks in > one of the bushings on the shaft right by the lever.
