remove them as a pack (see illustration).
Unless the plates are being renewed, keep them
in their original order. On 1991 to 1995 TDM
models and 1990-on XTZ models, note the inner
plate fitted in the clutch centre - if you remove it,
keep it separate as it must be installed first (see
illustration 16.27).
7 Bend back the tabs on the clutch nut
lockwasher (see illustration). To remove the
clutch nut the transmission input shaft must be
locked. This can be done in several ways. If the
engine is in the frame, engage 1st gear and have
an assistant hold the rear brake on hard with the
rear tyre in firm contact with the ground.

bolted together in the middle (see Tool tip), can

large sleeve from its centre (see illustration). To
get a grip on the sleeve, grasp the housing and
wiggle it out and in - it should draw the sleeve out
far enough to grip it. If difficulty is experienced,
screw a 6 mm bolt (a clutch cover bolt is the
correct size) into one or both of the threaded
holes and pull the sleeve from the housing.
10 Remove the caged needle roller bearing
from the housing if it didn't come away with the
sleeve, and then remove the housing from the
engine (see illustrations 16. 24a and 16.23).
