Default Re: Bearing question

the shielded bearing are not sealed and the grease will go into them but you should remove the clutch completely and the sprocket side cover so you can see when the grease starts to come out that is the time to stop greasing it. I remove the inside shields on mine and then grease them. but to remove the inside shield you have to take the whole shooting match apart and put back together. the shields will then be on only the outside and if you take the whole shaft out you will get to see the real clutch spring and it can be tightened up a little bit for more clutch pressure. If you are going to take it apart take the whole thing apart and clean it up and grease all the things inside that make up the shaft. That big spring will remove and not explode all over the place but just looking at it you swear it will fly apart if you mess with it.
