Hi Craig

My SSD is the same, washer on top.

Thanks Craig for that info.

Don't really want to take to mufflers with a ballpein hammer.

Hi all, wasn't sure where to post this. I have 900SSD and have had to space muffler brackets away from frame to stop Conti mufflers from hitting rear axle nuts under suspension travel. As I have never seen the original mufflers (silentium ?) would I be right in assuming they had an indent in muffler...

Hi Gents,

Have purchased a Sachse ignition system.
Have a few questions.
How do you sprag the motor to undo the 30mm nut?
Can someone please confirm the thread is right hand.

Hi Gents, Bit tardy with reply but i had to walk away for a while, this has been doing my head in. Since my last post i have replaced pickup wiring with PTFE cable ensuring good crimp connections etc. (I am an industrial electrician) What i did notice was, when testing resistance after crimp connect...

Hi Craig, Did as suggested and used rubber mallet, cover came off easy. Pickups and wiring are are in good condition, I suspect they may have been replaced at some point in time. Resistance measurements are within specification. I will probably just sleeve wiring and put back together after I polish...

Thanks again Craig,

Will break out cheap and nasty verniers and check taper lengths on screws.

I am just waiting on getting a 22mm bolt turned down so i can remove engine side cover to inspect pickups.

Yes, the taper section is visibly longer. (Estimate 0.5mm.) Inspected both under magnifying light thinking that shorter one may have tampered with but appears to be original. Correct me if i am wrong but the mixture screw on these carbs adjusts fuel flow. Searching forum suggests that screws should ...

Thanks Craig for your help. Have been away and got back to working on bike today. Rechecked float level and choke piston as suggested - all good. What i did notice was when comparing mixture screws was that the taper on the front carb mixture screw was noticably shorter than the rear! One would then...

Initial quick thoughts/questions: 1. Have you checked for air leaks around the intake manifold, both where it bolts to the head - did you fit a new gasket? - and where the carb clamps on? (Don't over tighten the clamp). Hold the engine at a low idle and get someone to spray something inflammable li...

Hi, Having issues trying to get reliable idle. Carbs (PHF32) have had overhaul kits fitted and spent a lot of time ensuring passages clear, float levels correct etc. Carbs have been synched as per Steve's instructions. Motor will rev out with no hestitation and sounds good. Accelerator pumps are vis...

Thanks Guys
L96M it will be then.

Hi, Have searched forum regarding paint code for SSD and currently have bodywork at painters. I have not seen an SSD in the flesh and the bike has non original paintwork. There is some evidence of a blue colour on back of side covers but it obviously had been sanded back and cannot be used for a col...

Hi all,
My name is Mark and have returned to forum after a few years. I have a 1978 Darmah SSD which i bought as a wreck and have been slowly working on for the last 11 years. I have recently retired, so it is full speed ahead to finally get bike on road.
