My Comet has ben faithful for 10,000 miles (actually 9992) and I put it up on the lift and rear stand for service and inspection. Moving/rotating the rear wheel back and forth produced a squeak and I thought the rear wheel bearings were about to fail, but on closer listening, the squeak was from the Burman 18T gearbox sprocket. Removed the chain guard and could see a spacer behind the sprocket intermittently move and this was the squeak! Dam, I have to pull the primary, clutch, oil lines, battery, foot pegs, gearbox and more....so I did.
I found the 18T sprocket loose, the big sprocket nut was on as required and lock tabbed, but the spacer behind the sprocket that butts the bearing and seals the gearbox was loose, sprocket loose , nut loose.
This was a fantastically wonderful thing !
I also found my PD7 crank/ESA nut was coming off and had just started machining the inside of the primary!
ESA springs PD6/PD27 littering the bottom of the primary drive. Yikes!
All fixable, but my question is - What PD parts do I need to convert this Comet to D lock tab PD7/2?
Cheers
