Float replacement on Piaggio X9

How to replace the float on Piaggio X9 250. we practically have to disassemble it all. Let's start by removing the two bolts from the saddle compartment and remove the tail light connector. Inside there are two more screws, which we will remove, two side bolts and two on the bottom of the body. In the lower plastic, where the drain is, there is another bolt that goes out and another one underneath. That piece slides back and away by pulling it hard, then there are three large bolts to hold the deck and three more small ones. We remove the three carburetor air box bolts and disconnect it, including all the carburetor feed lines. Then we remove the bolt at the top near the glove compartment to remove the handle. There will be two more bolts. At that point, by removing the bolt under the headlight, we also remove the left fairing. We finish removing the three Allen keys that are on it. We disconnect the bulbs by removing the headlight cover. We slid the seat off the pin. We remove the three bolts of the cover. Remove the 4 screws that hold the petrol cap in place (we also have to remove the cap gasket, otherwise it won't come off). Remove the two bolts that hold up the rest of the footpeg (we already mentioned how to make the footpeg come off). what we have unveiled the piece that interests us. We also open the top by removing the plastic covering of the saddle pad. We loosen the acceleration and deceleration cable. We remove the bolt that fixes the membrane, we loosen the clamps of the manifolds and we detach the petrol and air pipes. Now the carburetor comes out. Now all we have to do is unscrew the four bolts of the float and change the float bowl, which absolutely must not play, but stay still in its place. Now we just have to put everything back together the way we took it apart!

How to replace the clutch on the Honda CRF 450R?

The replacement of the Honda CRF 450 clutch is carried out by loosening the bolts that secure the crankcase positioned on the right side of the bike, so that it can be removed. After the crankcase has therefore been removed, it will be possible to access the components that are inside it: the discs that make up the clutch can all be removed after having unscrewed the bolts that secure them. Once the discs have been removed, it will be possible to insert the new ones, fixing them with the relative bolts and covering everything with the special cover previously removed.
