 6. The next thing was the...  6. The next thing was the removal of the stock H-D bearing inner race from the transmission, the BDL backing plate has its own seal and bearing. The plate will not fit if you don't remove the race.  7. Next, the backing plate...  7. Next, the backing plate was mounted to the bike and torqued to 25 lb-ft, you can see that the front of the backing plate has six bolts that mount to the motor (if Kazoo's hand wasn't in the way), and three that mount to the transmission.  8. Once the backing plate...  8. Once the backing plate was bolted up, Kazoo aligned the starter to the plate and torqued the bolts to 20 lb-ft.  9. Next was the ball bearing...  9. Next was the ball bearing lock up clutch assembly, which consists of seven fiber plates, seven steel plates, one diaphragm spring, one spring retainer, four socket head bolts, ball bearing housing, and 32 3/8-inch ball bearings.  10. Kazoo installed the motor...  10. Kazoo installed the motor pulley and clutch basket along with the belt as one. The clutch basket has a lip on it, so the belt needs to go on the basket first, but it is easier to do all three pieces together.  11. Then, both the mainshaft...  11. Then, both the mainshaft nut for the clutch basket and the front motor nut were installed then torqued to spec.  12. Starting with a steel...  12. Starting with a steel plate then a friction plate, all the clutch plates were installed.  13. The design of the EVO-8S...  13. The design of the EVO-8S is setup so that the clutch pushrod end adjuster needs to be installed from the backside of the bearing plate due to the new o-rings on the rod end. There is no seal on the nut anymore. Then Kazoo carefully placed the ball bearing lock-up plate with diaphragm spring onto the clutch assembly, then the spring retainer with hardware.  14. Once Kazoo had adjusted...  14. Once Kazoo had adjusted the clutch he then installed the stand offs for the belt side cover, and then placed the cover onto the drive to check belt alignment and clearance. With everything good, he then installed the clutch basket dome cover. Mike told us as soon as we get our photos he planned to pull the covers off and get them powder coated black.  15. The last thing was the...  15. The last thing was the starter shaft cover; with the new H-D starter design the cover fits flat with the backing plate without anything sticking out.  16. Here is the new EVO-8S...  16. Here is the new EVO-8S on the Cross Bones, it was an easy install that could be done at home and it's a nice addition to Mad Mike's bike.  17. Here a shot of the covers...  17. Here a shot of the covers after they were powdercoated black
