I have been getting some seeping from my clutch cover gasket, so I went and picked up one from a local dealer. I said "I need a clutch cover gasket for an 03 XB9R." He gave me something that had the right shape, but was not what I remembered seeing haven replaced my primary fluid the year before. I asked if he was certain this was what I needed, and he said yes, so I left. I went to change the primary fluid before I put the bike away for the winter, and I find that my memory was indeed correct. Here are pictures with the old gasket on the left, and the new gasket on the right.   Here's the picture from the Parts book:  The problem I have is that the new gasket is 100% not compatible with my clutch cover. Do I have some special and rare clutch cover? I see that this is the clutch cover gasket available at American Sport Bike, but it is not the part number listed in the 03 XB9R parts book. Am I missing something, or do I just need to convince my dealer (and Al) that their parts reference is wrong? | ||

I know this is an old post and you've probably found your answer by now but the gasket on the right is the like ones I've been getting for my 04 xb12s. They have been working fine in my bike. Is there any difference in our motors? I didn't think there was but apparently so.  |
