99 klr oil screen

Post by Ed Hines » Sun Oct 01, 2006 10:20 pm

Did an oil screen check and clean on my brother-in-laws KLR. Pictures are posted. Look under 99 KLR oil screen. The oil screen was very bad, but what concerned me the most was the loose band spring from the shift shaft assembly. It was laying behind the shaft assembly and wrapped around the tension spring. I do not know how he was able to shift like this. Has anyone else ever find this on theirs. If this band had floated who knows what damage it could have done. This bike has 20,000 miles and seems to be just fine and we are both thankful that we did the oil screen on his bike before the Arkansas trip at the end of the month.
