Brook I've learned so much from your videos. If you ever get a customer in need of a main bearing swap, I could use some pointers!

Paul, I'm pleased these videos--and the documents on my web site, brook.reams.me--have been instructive. I don't actually have any "customers" other than myself. This material is created as I work on my own bikes. So far, I have not had to replace any main bearings on my bikes. But if I do need to, I'll document that work.

Brook, thanks for this. I'm replacing my rear main seal and took the clutch apart and it's in great shape. The pressure plates are in great shape, but since I have it all apart I'd like to sand the surfaces which grip the friction plate. Any suggestions on sanding grit or would you recommend I just leave it alone? It's not bad at all and I'm not interested in taking them to a machine shop.

I’d clean the plates with brake cleaner and then reinstall it.

@@BrooksAirheadGarage that must be the quickest response in KZread history! Thanks as always Brook. I study your videos and read your blogs multiple times before attempting anything. You’re a blessing sir.

If you want to break the glaze on the friction disk, try 600 grit and don't sand too much.
