The back road from Rhayader to Devil's Bridge is a ripper, but mind the sheep!
That's one is defo on the plan. Miss the roads of NSW, but when the sun shines, Wales has some amazing roads, spaces and places - mostly empty too...bar sheep!The back road from Rhayader to Devil's Bridge is a ripper, but mind the sheep!
Thought of that one Bernd -but good point ..a mate mentioned to me there might not be enough 'pull', checked it against a commando one -bit of luck, had a Commando lever in place! Might it be a Norton owner's mod? (even thought about lengthening it a bit too, cut, weld, temper...). Think the Clutch should be ok, its just that cush system, or rather lack of one which is having me scratch the rain detector. Can't think of what I've got close to 25 tons hanging round the house to do what you've done there . Looked at Yammies, Hondas and Suzie clutches, there seemed some possibilities -Ben and Steve over at Conways/Godden do a loverly one with their Honda kit.I used a belt conversion from norvil on my comet. The front "sprocket" I machined in my mill to accept the pd4 with the help of a 25 ton press. If using this arrangement I had to widen the clutch cover with a welded on strip of alloy all way round.
If you do so please don't forget to use the commando type clutch lever in your gearbox, the atlas type has not enough lift for the diaphragm spring.
While it worked okay I changed back to chain with a self fabricated clutch conversion [yam clutch] with Peter Barker making the cush rubbers for me.
I simply changed as I found the cover to wide to look beautiful, so purely cosmetic reasons.
