Blocked fuel pipe/pick up? Could also run but would not pull top gears. Fitted an override pump(was on racer) & this would pull more fuel than the standard lift pump. Piece of wood in pipe had gone up it,fitted a series gauze on the pipe after

Is the waste gate pipe been restricted by the vacuum pressure(collapsing pipe)& not allowing full movement of the waste gate?

There used to be a classic metal grill with spot lights in it.(better than spots on bumper. High beam was operated by floor button like series motors

can you adjust the rod/flat metal on the internal pull handle to make it work?

1949 S1 knock on metal type Early disco Both are knock on,not measured or removed to check further. They look the same size(my theory is wheel stubs are all the same design/size for most years) unless you got HD with bigger shafts

Is that an ABS ring? Rest looks standard

I will be ignoring for a few days but someone will remind me to update..

Never tried… they may fit early shafts How do the series ones hold on? At least the plastic ones grip a lip

@MGT have you seem the trouble you have caused… Having to ignore this thread is causing sleepless nights. Off to the doctors to see off they can help.

Had a look as busy tommorow. There calendar is good. Waiting to see where the September meet is. Been to caffeine & machine a few times which is a good meeting point & the food is good https://www.teaonthetailgate.co.uk/

Find out when… (Dont do FB)

They should be nuts & bolts. They are not captured Grind the heads that you can see off & push the remains out the rear

Oh I thought I was the only 1 ignoring it

The valves would bend on impact so would not cause damage. Normally if a belt/chain goes it would mark a few pistons not all of them Have you had any head problems?

I thought you would have upgraded the glass fuses. ( I do have the glass fuses and they can be finicky but are easily sorted)

You forgot skin tight Lycra. Plus on a bike you don’t stop for traffic lights

Should I remove this thread from my watched selection?

How many can weld to the BS5135 spec? ;) Great info though

That’s blown the hub seals. Check your breather pipe on the axle to see if it’s blocked . Check the bolt itself as well. I know you say you checked them,can you blow through the pipe? It’s unusual for the seals to go.unless you had cheap ones fitted and they gone brittle with lack of use

Think all measurement are from the rear tub as this is a fixed point & can’t move. Unsure of the measurements between tub & bulkhead(door gap) Bolts for bulkhead correct way,you can put a jack under the bulkhead & remove bolt back a bit to allow shim washers to go in the gap.
