Motorcycle Repair: Clutch basket repari, clutch basket, compression tool


Question
Hoe do remove and replace the Clutch  Basket on a 1997 Heritage Soft Tail? I had a a little issue with the Starter which damaged the teeth on the Basket, I read that you have to be careful when you remove it as he has a lot of tension, Please advise.

Answer
You are going to need a clutch compression tool to remove the clutch basket. You would have to remove the primary cover, motor sprocket, chain adjuster  and then the clutch spring with the tool, Then remove the clutch basket nut and it will slide off.
Good luck and happy riding
