- I get a bit more descriptive in this video. I tried my best to explain what I was doing, and do it at the same time. Hope this helps some of the Moto Tubers out there! Enjoy!!

Thanks i have 1984 FXRT my clutch is out to day ago ! cool to see the inside of the beast 😊
I have an 1984.5 FXRS and I tore mine apart back in August to replace the front sprocket that had some broken teeth (mine is chain driven). I ran into the same issue getting the rear clutch hub off. Finally getting mine put back together and glad to find your video to remember how to put things back together. Thanks!
Glad it helped!!! Your officially a MotoTuber! 🏁
Great video, mines an 86 FXRS-SP, mines in a million pieces at the moment, this will help me on my rebuild, thanks pal👍
Thanks!!
I have the same bike. 1985 FXRS in dark blue. 19,000 miles. It sat before I got it. Been through the carb, cross over line on the tank, and some odds and ends. I had an 85 Electra Glide in 1989 too. Everything is the same except for my eyesight and getting up off the ground. I had gasoline coming out of my primary!!!! I imagine pet cock not shut off or leaking into the carb, float not sealing enough, leaking down the cylinder into the crank case, into the primary. Top of the primary was dry, no gas smell. Have a trans fluid leak too. Have the tools and seals, just not the time. Outer and inner coming off, replacing the primary side oil seal on the motor, and trans seals and primary stuff. Fun Fun.
Wow, sounds like you have a project on the horizon 👍🏼 fun times 😎
@@thomsoncustombikes Update - I got my primary covers off to do the trans seals. The needle bearing cage in the main drive gear walked outboard leaving no room to put the 5th gear oil seal on. I rigged up something with an 8" jaw puller that would pull against the belt sprocket nut and push in against the bearing cage, got it moved in, and got the oil seal in place. Re used the old belt sprocket with single lock bolt. (Metric!!). At the point to put the inner primary case back on. I wanted to see that jackshaft boot and starter goodies. Been apart for a month now! Should be back on track soon. vsk
Awesome how to video. Amazing. Thanks!
Thank you!!
Thanks man. Your right no videos on the tappered shaft clutch removal. Mine is a 89 softail but your video answered my questions.
Cool, stoked to hear it helped ya 👍🏼
Torque to specs, especially that model clutch hub nut. Using an impact wrench can split the hub at the tapered keyway.
And I'm pretty sure the rotor could have stayed in place but removing it does let you examine it.
I recently bought an Evo Dyna Low Rider with forward controls that I want to put back to mid controls. This video was helpful, especially the tube the shifter goes through. I never saw that on my older bikes.
Cool! Glad it helped ya 👍🏼
I had a 1985 FXSB (same only 4 speed). The puller the service manual said to use was for the older dry cluth and won't woirk with the wet one - none of the holes line up correctly. I used a steering wheel puller, quick and easy and I already had one. Best to replace the clutch hub with a steel one while a person has it apart. Never mind how I learned that.....
When you pulled the clutch assembly, did you use the same four bolts in the assembly in combination with the tool? Just bought a 1985 FXRC. Transmission fluid leaking at the drive belt. Let the fun begin.
Yes, and you can either use the 4 bolts with the tool or the clutch assembly. Depending on which are the right length.
Nice. Thanks mate.
All that to change drive belt , or chain !
On my 84 soft tail.
Evolution with shovel head primary, tranny.
FYI I use a steering wheel puller to pull clutch basket off.
Done it a couple times already.
No need to order special puller.
Nice video I have a 89 fxrs I that was given to me it has not run since 2015 I’m tearing it down to the frame I’m just about to pull the inner primary if the 89 has that tapered shaft, can u tell where u bought that puller u got .

Did you ever figure out where that copper washer @ 1:04 is supposed to go?
Yes, part of the starter inside the primary
It's funny I took mine apart too the first thing I found was a copper washer I don't know where it go the shifter bar that go to the gears is lose oh joy
The copper washer goes on the starter shaft between the starter shaft land and the primary.
A parts manual (available online) with exploded views of everything is a real help when it's a 'what fits where' issue.
😎👍😎
Thanks..
Nice Video! One question: Is there any kind of seal behind the clutch hub? You know to seal the inner primary at the main shaft. Asking because my 81 flt has a somewhat similar setup and all I have there is a ball baring.
Behind the clutch hub is 2 retaining rings (pt#37904-84 and 11006) also the main shaft ball bearing (pt#9025A) . But behind the inner primary is 3 important parts. A bearing (pt#9135) A oil seal (pt#12052A) and a retaining ring (pt#60678-85)
Hope that helps!
@@thomsoncustombikes Thank you very much 🫡
I like the video unfortunately I found it after I replaced the same shaft, challenging to be certain but I got thru it. Wish I had foundation it before
Thanks!!
Not a better video out there. Than you did your time for the community.
Thanks! Much appreciated 😎
@@thomsoncustombikes Shit i cant type with big hands on a fucking phone. That was supposed to say "thank you for your time you did for the community".
What’s the link of that website you got the puller from?
I will find the info and post it soon ,
👍🏼

Thruout the video, would have been helpful to show the bolts needing removed, especially from the inside,where the ground was located. Thx it was otherwise very informative
Thanks!!
