There's your best answer. Go for it, the primary clutches on the Genesis 120's was always noisy from the get-go, especially the earlier ones.

Thank you very much for the response to ease my mind. I was dreading another tear down.

On the small ride from the shop to the storage area, I did notice some clicking sounds. I am curious if the extro teeth are hitting the front torque arm crossmember or the rail tips. MTF

Skid is back in, everything is greased and the battery is topped up. The anti-ratchets seem to be on there well and lining up nicely in the track windows. Hopefully this move, combined with the corrected chain tension, will solve my ratcheting problem. I was really impressed with the ease of...

Yes I believe that's what I did last time, we have to do that with the Skandic/Expedition skids everytime too. I find the Yamaha ProAction front torque arm bolts are very far forward in the tunnel and a bit hard to get at and line up. The side panels are removed currently so getting in there...

Chaincase is back in, these are great to work on, even the shifter fork just fell into place without too much trouble. All brgs are good, I serviced the driveaxle brg with a grease needle even though it was still good, jackshaft brg was nice and tight. I had one "oh crap" moment when the gear...

Alright, sprockets are on the shaft, maybe a start at re-assembly tonight!

There is nothing special in the service manual about the adjustment, just the same as I always did:

OK, I have that so I will be extra careful, thanks for the tip.

Have you seen this in the VKPro? Is it common on the island? The only heavy hauling it has done is some personal trail grooming over the past 2 years. The chain isn't stiff or showing signs of wear, no metal filings in the bottom of the case on disassembly. I will pay close attention to...

Rough sight lol. Hopefully get the drive axle back next week with the anti-ratchets on.

Well the drive axle is out and headed to the shop for sprocket installation today. The entire chaincase had to come off to get the axle out, but it was not hard to do. Literally 4x bolts once the cover and guts were out. There are a lot of spacers, shims and washers in there, hopefully I can...

Alright, secondary is off, rear skid is out, chaincase is drained. Hope to get the cover off tonight, ccase guts out, speedo housing removed and driveaxle out tonight. Going well so far, pretty good to work on.

Well they're here! Have the local Yamaha shop lined up to install them on the driveaxle next week, have to take the chaincase apart, get the skid and driveaxle out over the weekend, maybe start at the ccase some night this week we'll see. I have not pulled a driveaxle from one of these before...

Alright, lined up a set of anti-ratchet drivers thanks to an amazing fellow member! Summer has been hot and a lot of other projects have taken the front seat for a while. Hopefully actually get the VKPro in the shop this weekend and remove the skid/track/chaincase guts/driveaxle in preparation...

Pls let me know if you find them, I would gladly take them off your hands, with cash!

It's fully clipped. I can see no signs of heat/scratches/wear or deformation on the drive sprockets. If it was ratcheting under load you'd think you'd see something, right? I'm going to bring it in shortly, back off the track tension and get into the case/drive axle bearing and go through...

Tight as can be, zero play. So strange this one.

I had a good look today, they look to be in perfect condition. Very strange.

And of course, out of stock at Royal Distributing...
