Yamaha and AFAM (old and new) are a much better fit on the splines than the troublesome one that I have just removed. There is no difference between the Yam and AFAM on my splines....so I'll be paying £9 a go rather than £45!
Sprock is now loctited on.....hope I put enough on. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif[/img]<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
It really don't need alot - just enough to fill in the gaps between the splines on the shaft and the sporcket, which is only a very small gap 0.1-0.2mm max
the DRZ boys (where the fix originated) say only 3 drops on the output shaft required
I put a drop in each valley of the splines on the shaft, and a drop in each valley of the splines in the sprocket, and assemble
Too much and you risk pushing it under the output shaft oil seal spacer, and loctiting that in place!!!!
3 times I have change the sprocket on me DRZ and each time it has required the 3 legged puller to get it off.
Its good stuff I tell you
You just need to make sure its spotlessly clean
Use contact cleaner to remove any oil/chain lube etc and fine wet & dry to remove any rust, they contact cleaner again.
