Need help finding a gasket
« on: February 16, 2018, 10:43:01 AM »
Need help finding the seal for the plate around the shifter, and it probably wouldn't hurt to do the seal for the shifter as well. Just started leaking, i though it was the clutch cover, but the gasket doesn't look right. Any help would be appreciated.

That is the transmission cover. The clutch cover is on the other side at the kick starter.  8)

 If it is the seal on the cover where your shifter spindle goes through one of my places,Paw Paw Cycle shows it as part number 91206-286-013. It measures 14x28x7 and costs a whopping $2.21. The cover gasket is $11.59 but you can probably find one cheap on E-bay maybe.

Not to worried about the price. Just want it to make sure i have quality parts going onto the bike. I dont want to ever have to replace new parts for at least another 40 years. Lol. I have to much into this bike to sell it. So i should till have it by then. Hopefully its worth more at that point. Honestly, im not sure what motor name is. Its a 77 cb750f. Its leaking oil from the trans cover. Should i do both of them? Im not sure what the one to the left(front of the engine) is called either. And i don't know if id have to take the trans cover off to replace it as well.

Bennie,
  If the transmission cover is leaking, just replace that. The seal for the shifter is probably good, if it isn't leaking, don't worry about it. The alternator cover is in front of the transmission cover, and you don't have to replace that if it isn't leaking. They CAN be done separately from each other. Have a great day, brother!

Transmission cover gasket is easy, just remove the shift lever, remove the transmission cover, clean the gasket surfaces well, and put a new gasket in place. Since you already have the trans cover removed go ahead and pop the shift shaft seal out and pop a new one in.

alternator cover is leaking around the bolts. Well, the cover in front of the picture I posted last time. If it's the alternator, why is it leaking oil....?

Yes. I have the 750f. I like your covers. How'd you get the to shine like that? Also, where did you get your gaskets?

#0000 steel wool, blue magic and elbow grease. 

make sure you check that plug between the stator and transmission cover.  hondabond 4 was helpful here once it was all cleaned up.  i think i bought my gaskets from david silver spares.  no need for sealant on them.

F2 and F3 engines came from the factory painted black so some of the paint you have is probably factory original and may be tougher to remove.
