I have a new to me 2002 K1200Lte, that I just put a new clutch in, which actually wasn't as much a nightmare as I expected, though I did get two connectors in the wrong place. Got it all back together and even with 97000 miles she runs like a raped ape, I do however, still have to take it apart again (2 time) for the replacement of the seal that closes off the trans oil from the slave cylinder. I have put in two now, get about 10 miles on it and it starts leaking tranny oil out the weep hole...WHAT'S THE SECRET TO GETTING THAT SEAL IN PROPERLY.????? Taking it apart again tomorrow but can't another seal until monday, Hopefully for the last time,
OH, what size are the vacuum lines to the throttle bodies? I have an erratic idle once warmed up, 1200-2000 up and down..I'm thinking a vacuum leak and figure I might as well replace all those lines with some new hose. Have done the cannisterectomy, and the brown wire thing. New plugs, fuel filter, air filter, oil, oil filter, new fluids all around, Using synthetic gear oil in the trans and final drive. new pivot bearings in final drive, new brake pads in rear. IF I get the leak and surging taken care of, I should be good for a long long while..
