Mag housing

This is the view from the back of the mag housing, showing the crankshaft bearing. Beneath the oily mess you can see the oil seal and huge circlip holding it all in. I had trouble removing this circlip as my circlip pliers weren't up to the job. I had to resort to standard long-nose pliers and a screwdriver. So much for 'the right tools'!





To remove the bearing I used a suitable-sized socket and a mallet to hammer it all out.
