Here's a question from a rank amateur, novice motorcycle owner. I want to polish some of the pieces of my CB750 engine case (if thats the right term) -- transmission cover, clutch cover, etc. My questions are:
Are there any bits or pieces that I might remove that will damage gaskets that I should have on hand before removing the piece? Are gaskets hard to find or can they be fabricated from sheet material using the old gasket as a patter?
I'm assuming that some pieces,the transmission cover for instance, I will need to drain engine oil before removing or risk a puddle of oil on the garage floor.
