Preemptive Shift Return Spring and Pawl Arm Replacement

Here's a shot of the acorn nut cover, and the actual eccentric adjust and (flanged!) jambnut.

 

 

That's not a flange, it's a washer.

Aha. Well I will try again! I thought it looked like a washer too, but it wouldn't come off... I will coax it off and see if I have a thin walled socket to fit. Thanks!

Do you have this nut on backwards ?

Because the washer is thing the dome nut will have crushed it a little and it will have deformed into the threads. You'll need to grab the OD with some pliers and screw it off.

Thanks guys, I will give it another go next weekend. I didn't get a chance to try again yesterday as I was busy tearing down an '03 Aprilia for restoration (i.e. no room to move the V11 out with Ape parts laying everywhere!)

Now that I look at my own photo, it seems plainly obvious that it is a washer separating the two nuts.
