SWM

Hello, I'm in the middle of a Tl320 rebuild. Does anybody happen to have a copy of a manual for one? Preferably electronic but not essential. Cheers Steve

Where can I get exploded view for 320 engine? Thanks advance

Hi All, While doing a pivot turn over a log on tl320 no. 2 I smacked the gearshift lever onto a branch stub bending the gearshifter in against the cases and twisting it. Even after gaining clearance from the case no more shifting and stuck in 1st gear. The impact was more or less straight onto the end of the shaft. Is it possible that it maybe worked back out to get end float clearance? Or is it likely that a shock to shift drum may have stopped it working. The kicker is still working fine and I'm assuming the gear shaft is not bent in side the kickshaft due to this. Any theories/ advice welcomed. While ive got your attention my no. 1 bike is leaking gearbox oil and…

Hi Guys. I’m getting to the end here I repaired my clutch basket got my kicker back in thank you for all the advice and help ! I notice a bunch of metal shavings from the end of that bolt that I used to lock the Crank and I want to flush the crank case cab or should I just pour in some diesel or parts cleaner , lift up the backend and it’ll flow out of that bolt hole on the front of the case , is that OK ? I’d rather not split the cases but I don’t want any metal getting in those bearings I assume there’s no liquid in the crankcase Other than fuel and two-stroke oil that comes in through the carburetter the only fluids I’m putting in the bike are …

Hi does anyone know where i can get a dating certificate for a 1980 SWM so i can register it for the road. Thanks

The Rubber connector from the carb to the disc valve inlet manifold has split on my TL320 Does anybody now a fix or where a new one can be purchased

.....and now a little Christmas fun! Having just rebuilt a Jumbo for a friend it was taken on a test ride. Full report and pictures are on my "Blog" www.blackcatvintagetrials. com or just hit the Blog button. There are all the other articles on the rebuild from scrap to showroom. Happy Christmas Tony

Anybody looking for a good swm have a look on woobly wills, Gary the seller is a good guy and the price seems very reasonable for a bike of this spec in this condition. "The bike has been rebuilt and bored to 250 ,enduro piston from Martin still needs running in .Burgat spec flywheel ,Betors forks in Marzocchi legs the best steering option,modern lowered footrests ,good splines ,new kickstart,good Falcons ,tyres,wheels ,new shoes ,plastics .The bottom end is from an Aprilia TXR ,different gear ratios and gearbox shaft splines ."

I have a 1981 TL 280. Is the air filter soaked in oil on an these bikes.

Ran the bike around yesterday in my woods and its great, lovely super grunty engine that will plonk along at incredibly low revs. Brakes are good now they have bedded in and set up with help from this forum. She's rides tight, light and bright, quick steering but stable too, Starts first kick after priming her on the decompressor. She doesnt feel her 34 years old. Rear suspension is very stiff indeed though after my Beta REV3. She has Sammy Miller gas shocks on 50lb springs which may need changing to 40lb springs or less! Clutch is light but to erradicate all drag Ive no adjustment left on my cable....whats the form on setting up the clutch adjuster screw and should i…

hello someone has MAGICALS in his tl 320, that measure is 34 0 36?

Hi all. Right I’m going to throw a grenade in here on this subject. Stock jetting is pilot 60, main 90 X2 needle and 70 slide, this we all mainly know. Right here comes the grenade. I’m running 52 pilot and 85 main to get my plug looking anything like how it should, I’ve gone right through the carb, float needle, float height, new needle, new atomiser, new choke plunger. On stock jetting the bike simply over fuels and the consumption is quite high. We’ve had this problem with another SWM and also a TX311 and in both cases the problem is solved by leaning the jetting. All the bikes pick up a lot better and do rev out ok. A 70 slide is lean and I believe by using a 60/90 se…

Hi , anyone ever put a Mikuni vm 26 on a SWM TL 320? Was it better ? jetting ok? Thanks

Any one any ideas how to wire up the horn electrics on a 320TL 1980's. I have the original horn and there are two spare wires available on the loom. These are coloured yellow and yellow with black stripe. What I really need to know is are these two wires connected directly to the horn or is one of them connected via a switch to earth. Any help appreciated. John

Does anybody know where i can get an oversize piston for a TL240 ?

I understand that on the later Jumbo's the steering head was steeper. Can anyone tell me how much steeper this was than the earlier frames and also how close was this to the current modern bikes? Thanks

As the title...do the earlier rear brake plates fit the later non-cush drive hub? I'm after a rear brake plate and cam to refurb' and have found one off an early Gori cush drive model. cheers as always
