I am going to have to do this. Can you tell me where to find the instructions? I think I found the special tools here listed in your comments. Thank you!

I'm wondering if this is my problem because the whining noise starts when I start the bike up, setting still with the clutch lever pulled in. I take off and the noise goes away.
174iceman thanks for the reply , and thanks for doing this on video was a big help ,you seem 100x more knowledgeable then me about bikes think you could help me out ? All my symptoms I have I narrowed it down to the front bevel gear bearing ,I just took it apart and got the the bevel gear nut but and I have absolutely zero slack at all , does that bearing mean thats good or still a chance it’s bad ? My first thought was that I have a u joint going bad , if I roll the bike in neutral there’s a loud click with the clutch in or out , but when I put it in gear and roll the bike the clicking almost completely stops I can just barely hear it , when I’m riding the bike there’s a loud whining noise and I think it says the same noise when decelerating hard to tell though , any help would be greatly appreciated
174iceman I haven’t taken the nut out yet to check the screen for shavings , going to try and do that tomorrow afternoon , another thing I should mention , when I’m decelerating it doesent matter if I pull the clutch or not the whining stays the same exact
After seeing this, I just need a dollar in gas and a match. Oh! Hell!! 😩😁

Very helpful. Thank you!

It was the water pump inner mechanical seal.
how hard was it to change?

no if in neutral and not moving , then it's not the problem, that bearing only turns when driveshaft turns
+174iceman. I just pulled the pre-screen and it's clean.
+174iceman. Probably the water pump. Wonder how hard that is? ... Do you have a link for the downloads you were talking about for repair.
+Rod Compton may be the clutch
+174iceman the sound doesn't change when I pull the clutch cable in or out
Do you still have the link for the bearing part number ?
Matthew Gentry sorry i don’t

Matthew Gentry sounds like it’s bad did you find any metal shavings?
Matthew Gentry it’s doesn’t do it when a load on it when you take load off it will click that the gears jumping apart and back together
