While im in ther i want to take the rod out and weld the ball on...... I want to install a billet water pump impelller.......

Surfrjag Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 welding the ball is a bad thing. its what happens when you have either adjusted your clutch improperly or held the clutch in while being towed in gear. consider getting the allen screw cover bolts. much easier to work with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ban565 Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 no need to weld just run low oil level and speed shift. It will by itself and saving you time taking it apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kawa110 Posted April 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Well maybe i am wrong but i remember people welding the ball or if you got lucky it would weld itself with heat. I thought the the ball was getting hot on bikes and self welding itself or shattering, if your lucky it doesn't shatter and cause problems I thought there used to be a pinned post on how to take it out and weld it the correct way so it doesn't happen on its own or shatter and leave metal in your motor.
