Re: Clutch woes
ok after reading your tale of woe. just replace the friction plates, you can get some surflex plates relatively cheaply certainly cheaper than Motohubs hourly rate , I am frankly surprised they have not done it. The oil issue is a red herring don't go there, the whole job can be done in an hour and ...

Re: Coming up for Sale
Hi re Stews Gp for sale , this used to be my old bike, I owned it for four years having bought it with 6k on the clock, I looked after it very carefully and never had any issues with it, apart from the not very good standard mapping. I have seen the bike recently in Stews ownership and he has upgrad...

Re: Nothing like it since...
Our bikes have the lot, great balance at low speed, sometimes you can almost balance at lights, low curb weight, large tank. Lots of power, well designed high tensile frame and good suspension at least at the rear suspension . The engine is a masterpiece of design and in use, what more can I say, mo...

Re: Swing arm failure
Hi all After some thought and discussions with various experts in aluminium welding, it has been decided not to brace or reinforce, the welds on my swinging arm, they appear to be perfect and the chain tension issue I believe may have contributed significantly to the issue. I am right back where I w...

Re: Swing arm failure
Hi mysterG I have been talking with an aero space engineer friend today and it seems it’s possible to weld our swinging arms for additional bracing and to repair existing ones . I am going to get mine crack and dye tested first just out of interest. Really only bracing with 3mm 620/720 alloy plate t...

Re: Swing arm failure
thanks for posting pics , looks like a catastrophic break as opposed to gradual , which is scary. who is repairing your swinging arm, and how are they going to do it reliably, being a thin wall casting. I did think about seeing if it is possible to add bracing to the pivot points on the arm, let me ...

Re: Swing arm failure
