and yes, i confirmed that the pressure plate is Sachs as well.
some of ebay sellers will sale the kit as Sachs, when the disc is made in Germany, and the pressure plate is a Chinese knockoff.
thanks for the pic.
i see you also save your old parts
Yes! Many folks think a worn out clutch disc is useless, but it actually makes a good Frisbee to throw at the neighbor's kids.

You're right! The flywheel would be far too heavy for them! Right now the children can barely throw the pressure plate!

@Mier,

One thing that comes to mind is the locking tool if you are doing IMS, to lock in the TDC position.

Past that, your list looks like mine…except you have actually bought the parts.

Keep us posted!

Thanks Mark.
The plan is to get the LN retrofit kit with the tools.
Looks like I'm gonna have some fun this winter. :dance:
