this might be easier

put it in 2nd gear and roll bike back gently until you can feel compression this is piston just after tdc.

put in neutral, ignition on and kick

worked for me on various bikes over the years.

Autojumble stall cost us £160 for outside pitch plus 2 extra bands, i didn't think there were a lot of british bike autojumblers. Plenty of USPRO tools for sale! and fudge/sweet stalls oh and scooters

clutch centre nut can loosen, it usually starts to drag first!

Short answer is no, unless you change the headstock bearings as well.

i have seen later TLS front end on A10, i think SRM can supply the correct Taper roller bearings.

Thanks for that. I'll get in touch with them early next week when they are back at work.

i had these on my A65 and be aware they can be noisy, i had shorty silencers on and made little or no difference!

I liked the sound but i'm not sure anybody else did.

About three years ago, I found out the difficult way that A50 push rods are shorter that A65. I found out again on Saturday. Guess!!!

« on: 28 August, 2021, 09:36:09 »
Does any body know if the A7 plunger gearbox mainshaft fits norton clutch centre? and indeed does it fit A10 std gearbox?

i have a belt drive on my Tribsa with std A10 gearbox but having problem with clutch centre.

cheers
