What's under this cover? Can anyone post a picture. Is there anything in there that needs maintenance?

Thanks a lot. That's a good picture. So do you know if it's ever necessary to lube the gears in there?

It's not really. However if you ever have an issue of once you pedal to speed, and let go fo the clutch, that you roll for a fair bit but the engine isn't turning over, then you'll need to open it.

thumb nail size blob of grease on top of the small gear where it engages the large gear,,if you search the threads you will find that the real tiny ball bearings behind the big gear that hold the clutch pucks want attention at times too

Thanks for the reply. My primary is kind of noisy with gear noise, but I assume that's normal. I'm a heavy weight at about 215. The clutch works real well and the engine has about 100 miles on it.
 
about my weight,the clutch side does quiet down w/greasing the gears (BUT just a small amoune as said before) according to threads in the past.
too much grease and it will get on the clutch material
