Lubing The Index ring
Quote from Reloader on December 20, 2011, 1:34 amI have an XL650 and the maintenance kit with the Dillon supplied grease, et. al. My owner's manual mentions "greasing the index ring" but doesn't tell me how to get to it. Do I have to remove the shell plate to access it? I can lube the cam and ramp on it's underside but how do i get to the top?
