Hi Vince, Bad back means no kicking, If anything,i will be working to improve the E/s, Looking into the possibility of fitting a decompressor similar to the singles to ease the load.

I'll put it on the list!!. Thanks Steve.

On checking the levels on my 32's i found both to be about 22mm. I have re-set them to 18. 4mm seems a lot to be out.Is this usual?.

Fired the beast up today, an event, as i've not had it running myself. Electric start worked and got it to tickover. Plenty to still do,but now pressing on a bit .

Thanks guys, Every part of this bike is a minefield!, lots to learn and lots to do.

My 76 GTs has 70 slides.I'm thinking of fitting 60's, what suffix number should i be looking for? and is there much difference between a /1 and /2.

I would use molibdemon disulphide as used in cv joints.

Its all back together but there is still a problem, the starter is stiff to turn ,so it does not start rotating quickly enough to operate the bendix. The bearings are oiled and free , the armature is not bent, the only thing i can think of is perhaps there is no axial clearance. plenty of current be...

Hi Steve, thanks for your interest, there appears to be two set-ups for this part , i have neither. So its going to be a guess. With the shims and spacers as in the parts manual i'm left with an assembly with end play .However there is not enough room to fit the parts shown in Walkers and Haynes boo...

The Haynes and Mick walkers books show the bendix operating mechanism with 2 spacers and 2 washers on the spindle inside the case. The parts lists show a single spacer and one washer inside the case, they can't both be right. My bike is missing something and has damaged parts because of this. I need...

Nigel Lacey has come up trumps with the parts i need, hope to get it running soon when we will find out what state things are.

Is there a list of bearing sizes and ref no's for 860 motors.

Hi Ducadini, There is an oil circulation detail on this site and it appears to show the crank oil comming from below the filter ( but after close inspection does not!).The bearing in my clutch cover has no shield and no closing washer. Heaven knows how the B/End has survived, i now doubt it has!!.Th...

Thanks mate, Looks like i'm in for a long haul,( again). I may be able to replace the missing washer with a shielded bearing.The big end is surely suspect now.

The parts list shows an "o" ring in the bottom of the primary outer case behind the gasket. There does not appear to be one on my bike ,what is its function ? is it important . Is it a backup to the gasket?.I also appear to be missing the large washer behind the outer case bearing, Ive been told tha...
