What would be equally as popular would to cast up some Jones YZ/DT/RT clutch covers as these are the Holy Grail for DT1-YZA-B guys. Perhaps the same mould could be used with the addition of the Jones logo. If only we had one to cast a mold off :'(.

if its 1985 will it fit different models 86 / 87 ?? and yes can I borrow it send you the post

yes you can borrow no problem.

the clutch covers will fit 85 & 86 as GMC said. as for the crankcases i am sure 85 & 86 are the same (maybe a small change but will interchange between models) with a definite 5mm higher deck height (where cylinder mounts) from 1987 onwards.  so 1987 onwards is not interchangeable to 1985/86

i will see if i can locate a 1985/86 CR500 clutch cover

I just looked on ebay for YZ/DT/RT clutch covers no good I cant make one with out having one maybe I could cast of original then cut that up to make paten

[Rossvickicampbell]

did you mention you have to destroy the original in the forming process?

[kdx 175]

there is a way of not killing it its a lot more work and I don't know if it would work no harm comes to original part

[Rossvickicampbell]

OK - coz I am like Iain and may have one available as a mould.  YZB cover that is

[kdx 175]

i can try without scraping the original cover it just may be a wast of time and look shit

I have a friend who is restoring an '86 Honda CR250RG, but the clutch cover is corroded too far to repair. I would imagine that he would be happy to send you his cover to make a mould from, if you are interested in making covers for this model. I think that someone has already asked about the '86 CR250 clutch cover earlier in this thread, so I think that there is a market for them . Or does a later model cover fit and work without major dramas ?

I have a 86 or 87 250 cover and crank case it on the list to do just time if I cant get 85 cr 500 to next I will do the 86 250

I have seen an "86 CR250 with what looked like an '89 CR clutch cover on it. It was the cover that had the removable bit to access the clutch. I have no idea how much, or even if any modifying was involved as I haven't seen the inside of the '89 cover.

i know someone who has done this mod. The '89' 250cc clutch cover is a bolt on unit and and the only mod is the brake pedal return spring mount.

Note this is not the case with the 500 as the clutch pack & counter shaft  needs changing as well as other mods.

maybe its now worth doing the 85 - 88 covers if you can modify 89 covers
