Shift Fork: Testing and Inspection

SHIFT FORK/CLUTCH HUB SLEEVE
^ Check the contact surfaces of the gear shifter fork and clutch hub sleeve for evidence of wear or damage.
^ Verify clearance exists between gear shifter fork and slot in hub sleeve. Measure from gear shifter fork to the clutch hub sleeve. Clearance should not exceed 0.8 mm (0.031 inch).

1. Check operation of clutch hub sleeve installed onto hub.
2. Position clutch hub and sleeve horizontally. Lift the hub approximately three-quarters of the way off the sleeve. Release the hub and observe downward motion. Hub should slide downward into sleeve on its own. It should not be necessary to push hub into sleeve. Service as necessary.
