Don't know what I will do with this bike. Right now
I just want to get her
running right. I'll replace the clutch springs too.
She will be a strong
runner when she learns not to jump at the gate.
Speaking of jumping at the gate....when are you
leaving? I'll be thinking of
you all converging to the various rallies about the
country. I think that
the Ontario and NM rallies are going on this weekend
too. I hope everyone
has good weather and safe rides. Friday seems so far
away right now.
...Ian

I originally sent this but I got booted from |

Anyways....hope you all can help with the |
|
| | | |

Hi All,
I recently bought an Eldo which had a grabby |
|
|
| | | | | | warm) clutch in first gear. Many of you put |
|
|
| | | | | | hoping to get that coveted prize (bragging |
|
|
| | | | | |
The general concensus was that the problem |
|
|
| | | | | | input hub. My thought was a warped |
|
|
| | | | | | springs that had different spring forces? Bad |
|
|
| | | | | |
OK....Ed and I pulled the engine this morn and |
|
|
| | | | | | Input hub...perfect with no discernable wear. |
|
|
| | | | | | looked new and the teeth were good. |
|
|
| | | | | | fine as did all the other bits and pieces in |
|
|
| | | | | | thing was that there appeared to be quite a |
|
|
| | | | | | in there which I figure must be from the |
|
|
| | | | | | rod was straight and looked well lubed.
Any thoughts or suggestions? Any way I sort |
|
|
| | | | | | having to reassemble the engine and give it a |
|
|
| | | | | |
The good news about having to pull the |
|
|
| | | | | | main was leaking oil.....the oil piping was |
|
|
| | | | | | washers, and the other oil pipe (the one with |
|
|
| | | | | | like it was seeping too. Nice to know that |
|
|
| | | | | | engine will benefit in two ways.
Oh...by the way...if you are thinking that oil |
|
|
| | | | | | clutch plates....didn't happen. Leaking was |
|
|
| | | | | |
Thanks for the help...Ian |
