preventive measure ?

I#m replacing the clutch this weekend. Is it worth replacing anything else (just for peace of mind) while the gearbox is off? It's a 1150adventure with 60000km on the clock.

I think the general opinion is if the the crank seal is nt leaking leave it alone the same goes for the gearbox seal, think the only thing is to re grease the gearbox splines with optimoly paste.
when I changed my flywheel and clutch the other week only other thing i replace was the clutch actuation gasket.

Im sure there will be others that are more qualified to advise you

I replaced my clutch at 128k miles (it wasn't slipping - I wanted to do the swap at a time convenient to me). I fitted a different gearbox at the same time. I reasoned that this was likely to be the only time the gearbox was going to be off the bike in a 1/4 million miles, so replaced everything with OEM parts - pressure plate, friction plate, bolts, slave cylinder etc etc - but not the seals (they were all dry, so why disturb them?). No problems 30k miles later...

Some pics of the clutch that came out

Mike,
What did you use for the custom gearbox ratios?
Thanks, Mark
