If they are down the pit, Junior will get em out when he comes in from work
That's great thanks Ronnie, just let me know how much for postage etc - or if you want me to arrange collection its no problem.

Might be able to get the car rolling for Saturday, clutch is seized though......

Many Thanks.....AndyH

andy, if the clutch apears siezed, it may just be wear on the clutch basket, it happens to motocross bikes all the time when their thrashed and left for a while. The basket gets little ridges worn onto where the plates slot into it. Usually a dismantle and a light filing sorts it out.

i bet the clutch will be fine once the engine is running and the drive line is in almost all bike clunk and jolt the chain when thay first select first when cold.
top tip only and only put bike oil in a bike engine with a wet clutch or it will soon be slipping!

Yes that's my hope Baz, get the wheels on and give it a good jolt once we also get the drive shafts on which Bonzo is so kindly donating parts for.

Cheers....AndyH

Talking Just checking

Hi Andy

Just to double check before I go & package the wrong parts up

It is the shaft ends that you need ( Pictured left ) & not the driveshaft flanges ( Pictured right )



I'll get them sent today, with a little luck, should be with you tomorrow
