200x tech question

[whiteman350x]

Is the oil rotor nut on an 83-85 200x left hand threaded? I know they are on the 86-87 200x's. I need to know before I twist something off.

Thanks.

the CLUTCH basket is LEFT hand threaded....the OIL PUMP NUT is right hand threaded. I remember my clymer manual saying to stick a penny in the gears and take it off....the penny will give before the gears do!

I did a write up on how to clean it on 3wheeler.org. It's in the tech section of the forum.
