Has
anyone used silk thread between the mounting plate and the gear
housing without using sealant? And would this cause a
problem?

Bob,
This is a tecnique used on Lycs' with poor case castings, WITH SEALANT. I
would suggest that if you have GOOD castings/plates the thread will do more harm
than good! Modern motorcycles with good castings use nothing but sealer ALWAYS.
Yes Buly it can be a bi*#h to get off. The bike cases have frequently included a
couple of jacking screws in an area with plenty of seal area.
