I see Martin from MBD has made the brass bushing for clutch hub. It is not available from Yamaha separately , so how does one go about removing the old bushing and installing the new one? I looked at a spare clutch hub and that bushing seems pretty tight inside the hub. Heat? Thinking about getting one when I redo my basket but I want to know how to go about it. Thanks!

For some reason a lot of the aftermarket bushes of this type have been poorly sized, leaving you with more slop than OEM. Im not saying Martin from MBDs is like that, Ive never had one, but if its not specially made then I do worry about the sizings.
Im with Steve, a new basket seems to be best.

You need to press them out and and press the new one in using a drift. I had a drift made for the job.

I did the same as Rob above. I first pressed it into the kickstart piece and then into the basket.
I made a drift/tool which presses the old bush out and the new one in at the same time. I've never had to use heat.
The original bush is magnetic. Probably copper coated steel. Not really sure about the construction.
If it isn't magnetic I wouldn't trust it.
I don't know what the clearance is supposed to be but it should be a little loose for the oil film.

juat cut the old obe out using a dremel or even a hacksaw blade, the primary gear and kick starter gears are very hard, so you'd need to go at it very hard to damage them, just put 2 slots in the old one 180 degrees apart and then tap them out - easy
putting them in ideally requires a "dolly" made to measure to keep it square and even while pressing it into the 2 parts
