i installed the ape heavy duty bearing in my cases on my 1980 z1r 1000 and the back pawl on my shifting mechanism hits the exposed bearing race.so i have sanded and ground it down until it seems to work.has anyone else installed one of these?did you have to do the same thing to get clearance?any help/advice appreciated.

upon closer inspection after advice from jay.it appears that i have mistakingly installed the input shaft bearing on the output shaft.boy is my face red :blush: .so i thought that i would "do the right thing" and come on here and admit that i am a dumbass :huh: so that i can possibly help someone else from making this mistake.so now all that is left to do is convince my buddies that i need to pull the motor again to fix it,without admitting my mistake :P .we have had the motor in and out twice already and they are about to quit answering my calls.

HEY dont feel bad, i got my motor out and split just b/c i didnt know about the 24 dollar needle bearing pusher and the clutch rod is made into the input shaft now . . .

That would have been an easy fix before hand if i would have known
