You can also get one through the Brunswick corporation we have several clutch type mechanisms on the Brunswick bowling machines and we often have to change clutch linings and the tool that we have I have used also on Harley-Davidson clutch baskets is such same thing you're doing there but ours is a screw type put the little rivet through and then set it on the anvil and then we you screw it down till it rolls it and makes it tight but they offer these little anvils in the parts book I prefer the screw type instead of the impact type such as yours.. but that's just because I've gotten used to it over the years and not a lot of people know that you can change that on the back of your clutch hub so great tip and great tutorial Mike...
You call it a riveter. I call it a stake and anvil set. It would have come with several stakes, having different shaped tips, and several anvils, for different purposes and applications, and if course you'd end up making your own stakes and anvils for specialized or one-off tasks. Your vids are always a pleasure. Thank you.
Brings me make to the days when working in the foreign car repair shop behind where I grew up replacing the shoes on VW brake shoes before when the shoes were bonded. We did not have a drill press so we would knock the rivets apart by using a chisel on the rivet that was exposed on the underside of the shoe. Then punch out the rivet. Good close ups! I just noticed someone gave you a thumbs down. Really!!!!!
Another awesome Pacific Mike HD video . I ordered the rivet tool despite have three sets of tools in my 45 years tool box I don't have a rivet tool for hubs and brakes but I do now thanks to Pacific Mike . And oh yeah I know probably only use it once but tools are cool 😊.
Mike you remind me of Terry Finnley, a guy I worked with at Eagle Cycles here in KY.... I found some brass leather rivets online and used them on two fenders....on one side they looked like 12 gauge shotgun shells.
Love you videos. You've inspired me to build one from a titled frame up after I got my 71 FL running like a champ. Thanks to all of your help. Please keep em coming.
Mike, I guess I wasn't clear I got my 71 FL running so well from watching your videos that I bought a 74 FL frame with a title. Thats what I'm building now. Again, thanks to your encouraging videos.

Thank you, till you reminded me that they were brass rivets I was going to give you a little shit about not using a lubricant before drilling the old rivets. Parden me for doubting you.

No harm, no foul. I'll bet I wouldn't be good at what you do. It's not something everyone does. I've had customers (make no mistake, I loved them) that I would tell, "You are not permitted to touch hand tools."
Hi Mile, I noticed that you now have a compensator sprocket instead of the solid motor sprocket sitting in the lift. In my experience, solid sprockets eat primary chains pretty quick (probably why there was a lot of "stretch" on the old chain). The compensator helps a lot with primary chains lasting a LOT longer. I have that same setup on my '53. Only wish there was a 24 tooth option for the compensator sprockets in that design for tapered shafts! Of course, you already knew this, which is smart to put the compensating sprocket on this bike. Thanks for the instructional videos. I have learned things!
Thank You. I just brought that thing out to show it. It's a 22 tooth. They also made 23's. I'm putting this thing together with a solid sprocket and all used stuff. Useable, but used. When, some day, we redo this whole bike, she'll get a belt drive primary. Smooth, quiet, clean, low maintenance, higher geared. But for now, just getting her going. Doing it for very little money. Trying to demonstrate, "it can be done."
Sourced a similar rivet set tool from JC Whitney about 40 + years ago.(back when they sold such specialty tools) ...It also came with a rivet removal anvil & punch along with a couple different rivet setting anvil & punch...even with removal tools I prefer to carefully drill the old rivets... Recall CAREFULLY using a hand drill on brake lining rivets...My old JC Whit rivet tool appears to be cast frame vs the higher quality billet frame version you're using...Very handy...also reseats worn out snaps on leather jacket IF snap is along an edge...LOL!

I've got one too. I want to use that old foot operated riveter for a bunch of neat stuff. Just need to find tools for it. I can only do one size rivet on it.
I haven't done one in probably 35-40 years. The reason is: If one stud went bad, the rest will follow soon. If that's the case, the rest of the hub is worn. Look at the keyway and see if the hub is cracked. By the time you restore it, you could have bought a new hub.

Hey Mike, question: have you ever seen a 4 finger clutch and if so, do you know what its from? Got my pan 30 years ago and it had one in it, nobody knew what it was and couldn't find parts for it so I installed a 3 finger. The 4 finger has been in a box for the last 3 decades and I just thought of it watching your video. Great video also👍🇺🇲👍🇺🇲👍🇺🇲👍🇺🇲
@@pacificmike9501 its a very old clutch and I could never get info on it from anyone, I'll have to dig it out and take photo's and send them to you. Its been packed away so long I can hardly remember what it looks like. When you see it you might be blown away, its the only one I've ever seen and when I bought my pan 30 years ago, the license plates were 20 years old back then. When I first saw it I called a friend and told him and he said impossible, only 3 or 5 fingers, when he saw it he couldn't believe it. I'll dig it out, maybe you could shed some light on it for me.
@@oldchicago3216 Done 3 to 5 stud coil spring conversion but never seen a 4 ..??? Curious if you ever find out what it is...enjoy researching old weird mystery parts like that
Hi Mike- super video. I have a question about that friction disc on the hub. What does it do exactly? What are the symptoms when its worn? Can it cause a chatter when releasing ( engaging) the clutch?. Thanks!
Not usually. Chatter is caused by several different things; wear on the fingers of the clutch hub, plates need cleaning, tension on the springs uneven, wear on the bearing surface of the hub or basket.
Yes I have. But, that was back in the day. I find that if one pin is bad, the rest are quite worn. I know these things cost money, but a new clutch hub is really the way to go.
Hey Mike, I guess your parts sources for these older bikes are, who? I have twin cams and I do order parts on line, but I also use a local Harley dealer near me but my motorcycles are a 2000 and 2004. If I keep them long enough I’m sure some items from a dealer will be obsolete or no longer available.
HI Mike!! Can you please tell how I can replace studs in the clutch hub like this ? I have the 3 long in really bad shape, and I wold like to replace Thanks an regards Leo!
It's in the service manual and tools are available. Nowdays, the suppliers all carry clutch hubs and they aren't terribly expensive. By the time you tool up and rebuild an old hub, you could have had a new one. I don't mean to criticize, but if the studs are going, it's probably a good idea to have a new hub.
I hope I wasn't rude. If you wanted to control the crush on Harley's brass rivets, it really wouldn't be that difficult a tool to make. And, it's not a bad idea.
'Applying suitable amounts of pressure, to enable increasing friction among a chamber of well slippery customers' (Voters are reminded that this is NOT a description of standard Parliamentary procedure . . . it's a bike clutch. Y'all : )
It's pretty straight forward. You'll need an inexpensive "bearing, seal installer" set to install the bearing races and seals. Look at the "blowup" picture in the manual. Replacing those parts is much like installing Timken type bearings in a wheel. Replace the bearings with matched new races, seals, and the spacers that go between the bearings and the frame. Install a new locktab when installing the pivot bolt. Torque as per service manual. Don't forget to pack the bearings with grease. Lack of grease is what wears them out.
Support the rivet from the back and grind a punch to do the job. A proper tool will do a better job. But you can get creative. You might even see if a shoe repair guy has a tool he can loan you. Maybe there is a brake shop in your neighborhood.
You should have a Harley parts manual. But, assuming you are working on a 41up Harley Big Twin dry clutch, there are three sizes (I assume this is allowing for wear in the clutch hub?. 3/16 x 7/32, 3/16 x 9/32 and 3/16 x 11/32. These are part no.'s 8226, 8227, and 8232 respectively.
@@pacificmike9501 Thank you, Mike. I never thought to look in the parts manual. You know how the old service manuals are. You look for a torque value and it says, “tighten sufficiently “. So the rivet size would probably say, “use rivet that fits hole”. Lol Thanks again, Mike
