Hey Motobrick family
I have a 1994 K1100rs. Had a shreded sprague. I took mine out to replace it. My problem is since the original was in about 10 pieces I have no idea what way the new sprag needs to go into the bike. Since this is a a one way clutch there are not options.
Anyone know how this should be properly installed.

You are the man. When I get this baby all back together I'll pull a wheelie for you :giggles
If I had not already surpassed 350, a wheelie might be a potential option, but now not unless I jump of while I gun it :laugh
Anyway I can clearly see the direction that the teeth on the little sprag need to be oriented. Now for re assembly.
Do you happen to have a rear luggage rack (the little cage type deal that sites over the rear fender/storage fairing) for sale?
Least I can due is purchase one from you for all your help.
Thanks
James

Just for the record..... Does anyone recognize this part................... I sure do :yes
Well this is what a jacked sprague looks like.
Pulling this out of the bike is what I did today and every nice weather day for the last 6 weeks.... about 10 to 30 minutes of wrench time most days.

I already have the new sprague and DW straightened my out with the correct direction, so it time for re-assembly.
What a project. I think I know how to wrench on every part of the bike (cause I dang near had to pull everything apart) now except the front forks, and what the hay I might as well pull them apart too :2thumbup:

I am told this happens to some bikes, but I never expected the sprague to be shredded when I opened the bike up.
The previous owner told me this issue preexisted the purchase, but after installing a new battery when I bought the bike, I never had any problems until last fall.
Aw long as it runs well after I put it back together I will be happy for the experience. I am starting to wonder if some of the sprague bits are floating around in some not so good places.
