Kick start .

Can anyone tell me where I can get a cotter pin that is for a motorcycle and not a push bike .I seem to remember years ago that you had to fettle a new one to fit .

Hi,

SRM do an oversize cotter pin.  Part of the problem is that the kickstart levers and shafts are getting a bit worn and even new levers are a poor, sloppy fit so even new cotter pins cannot do their job properly.

I've found that the rpolem I come across is not too slack, but have to make them smaller and slightly reshape the machined surface.
