I have tried easing the spacer to one side to show the bearing and hopfully drift it out with as much heat as I dare either side of the hub no joy
this morning I placed an M 10 expanding rawlbolt just inside the hub/inner part of the bearing tightened it up to grip on the inner race ring
and with some heat equal to the nose cone on the Space Shuttle and a few hits with my 4kg lump hammer from the othe side of hub
out came a bearing EUREKA !
the other bearing was easier to remove of course, I did find heavy traces of red loctite on the hub dont quite know why as bearing recess X 2 " are in good usable order ?
Muchas gracias for the info just about got my 77 350 finnished (decals mudguards final polish ) and have a 78 350 waiting to restore, what year is your pictured bike ?
Hi fourex i dont know what parts you require but have you tried in motion (Bultaco UK) they advertise on this site and have a section for Ossa spares I use them here in Spain and service is first class hope this might help you out
I am in the process of restoring my 77 350 Sherpa I am at the rolling chassis stage and now checking the motor over, before I started the project I rode the bike and all vital signs were good ie: gearbox selecting as normal clutch responding as normal engine crisp and responsive, I have taken ths cylinder head off and decoked the head and piston crown. I noticed there is no head gasket is this normal on my model ? also stamped on the cylinder close to the overlap joint is 159 R my engine No, is JM-19100771
the bore is unmarked with a std. Mahle piston any help gratefully received Stanley
Hola crowley have you tried contacting www.castrolclassicoils.co.uk ? they offer a UK postal service so maybe they could post to your M I L before she visits you, hope this may help .
Bankhol Monday 25th Aug, Man17 club and in conjunction with other local clubs run a Dead Easy Charity trial at Heaton House farm, Rushden Spencer, which is about 20miles from Stanthorne.
Its open to all classes, Quite a few classic bikes regularly turn out for this event because the event is more focused on get your bike out and ride it.

You will need 100% nitrogen if going below sea level... check your ride areas mean sea level.
How did you go with the re-torque by the way?

Hola mags I am enlightened for the correct ft.lbs. setting via guys at 12lbs. I am 136m above sea level measured from center of garage floor via Tom Tom gps
And I thought setting the points on my Sherpa was challenging so with me at total body mas of 99kg. what is the minimum volume of helium (HE) I need to counter balance a medium to very hard fall AKA disoriented/winded kg/kmol = lost control.
If i fill the front tyre with 100% nitrogen will it be easier to wheelie ? and also if I lose control over rocky terrain could I then breath in the nitrogen from the inner tube to ease the pain ?
Thanks for the replies afrer a "caja de San Miguel" it has become clearer in my head as guys posted 12ft.lbs it is then stocking up on " inspiration fluid SM." before i check my Tyre pressures
