I can imaging the fight you must have had to get the retaining pins in with the pressure plate not seated properly!! When seated correctly it's not too bad to get the pins in.

Hi Netley, The key bit in the lower video is at 13:30. The pressure plate only fits in one position where, when fitted over the studs, the cutouts on the inner face fit over the ridges on the clutch hub, as can be seen at 13:30 where the "hand" fits the pressure plate over the studs and keeps rotating it one stud at at time to find the position where the pressure plate slides home fully to clamp up the clutch plates. Hope this helps.

The next SCRMC trial is this coming Sunday, 12 July 11am start, at the excellent venue at Abington, just a mile from Junction 13 on the M74. As last year the trial will be over 3 laps of 15 sections spread round a 5 mile moorland lap with, on a clear day, excellent views from the top of the hills. The trial has Classes for Pre '65, Twin Shock, Clubman, Over 40, Air Cooled Monos, Youth A, B & C and caters for both modern and classic machines. The event will be run over 2 routes, the normal B route and the W route which is suitable for beginners, both Adult and Youth, and riders on more standard Pre '65 machines. Sections will be suitable for all Pre '65 and Twin Shock bikes. All welcome.

Hi, Having heard a recording of the the noise your bike is making, the tick is dependent on engine speed but the "tick" is only every third or fourth firing stroke not every revolution. It sounds like something up with a link on the cam chain and makes the noise when the bad link meets the cam sprocket. Enjoying the return to the sun?

Why do you think it is the SACU's fault? The Haggis Gathering date would be dependent on availability of the Lanark showground and the Perth trial date dependent on the farmer.
