My error on the part number that is the part I was referring to when calling it a backplate.

I probably used the wrong term but it is marked as part #8 on the previously attached pic. Thank you for your input on this issue and previously on my top end rebuild it is done and back in and running very well

I have a 2015 Uforce 800 and plan on doing some clutch repair. The clutch seems to be operating as should and no grinding when gear shifting but I believe my issue is in the assembly and the items circled in the attached pic. I want to replace both the back plate a guides and cant seem to find if this can be done without removing the motor on the Uforce? If someone has done this repair or knows if can be done without removing the motor please let me know.

AS always thank you for your knowledge!!!!

Here is a video of the noise in question

Hello I have a 2015 UForce 800 and I have a clunking noise at idle and seems to be coming from inside the side cover. My question is is it possible this noise is coming from the clutch assembly because it only seems to be present at an idle and not when under a load which makes me believe it is not a lower end issue.

Thank You if you have a link you suggest to download a shop manual please send it to me when you can

The year is a 2015 800 UForce. I have a service manual but I can find all kinds of torque specs but not for the cylinder head bolts

Does anybody know the torque setting on a 800 head bolt

Sorry to all out there it looks like the old rings do have this recess and it is on the 2nd ring from the top and it faces down?

Hello I purchased a top end rebuild kit and when I opened the package I discovered that one of the piston rings has a recessed area along the entire circumference. My question is should this recess be facing to the top or bottom of the piston. It is a aftermarket kit and the old rings dont have this?

I just ordered the ring compressor should be all set Thanks

Thank You for the help and your previous reply on the swap out from 800 to 1000. Do they make a special ring compressor for these motors the oe I have is for a auto motor and way too big to fit in the small space allowed? Could I possibly use a zip tie?

Thanks for your input I will stick with the 800

Hello I am rebuilding the top end on my 800 engine and noticed it appears as if the base gasket on the cylinders has been installed with some kind of adhesive while the head gasket has no adhesive. Is this the correct way? Also when installing the pistons into the cylinders should I figure a way to compress the rings or should the bevel on the bottom of the cylinders allow the rings to compress on their own or possibly with a little help using my fingers or a non metallic object?
