    I took a hard fall during a hare scramble yesterday. My shifter put a small crack in the clutch cover. Is there a quick fix for that? Not necessarily want to go the cheapo route but I'd like to ride a bit this week and it would be nice to do it without buying a whole new clutch cover.

    I cracked a clutch cover on a KX250 I had when my brake lever smashed into it during a crash. JB lasted until I sold the bike.

    Maybe a stupid question. Do you JB Weld both outside and inside or just outside? Its a small crack with a pinhole leak. I worried if I do the inside if the weld breaks off it will mess things up inside.

    Good question! I thought the same thing about the JB Weld on the inside. I just put it on the outside and it worked perfect.

    If you can, drill a small hole a the start and finish of the crack, groove it and patch it from the outside...this will stop the crack from increasing the grooves help it sit in the crack.
    Personally, l wouldn't put metal putty inside the cover as the oil can contaminate.

    Thanks for all the quick replies. One more ? Which JB weld did you use on your clutch covers?
