Oh for the simple days when it was all about making progress, one dab, one point, two dabs or as many as you needed, three points and if the front wheel spindle stopped moving forwards, five. Sections had as many routes through them as you could find, you'd make your own decision which part you thought would be the best bit to get you through, no flags of various colours pinning you in. Walking the section and picking the route you deemed the best, learning from the better riders what would afford you the best grip..... it was the best of times.
not sure how the above remark is intended,but for myself I`m interested otherwise I would not read this forum or have signed up for ORRe and as with all things make up my own mind right or wrong from there.....
Had a friend who hated people saying Wickes’s instead of Wickes, eBay drives me nuts where everything is either "rare" or has been previously "brought" instead of bought. If it`s that good he could have the minimum starting price because the punters will always push the price up to where it belongs if it`s that good. An auction isn’t it?
Ooops cocked up there just noticed it`s a Classified Ad... ah well...
probably teaching the converted it usually helps to give the puller a tap on the end once its done up tight,doing this when taking a car hub off once it all shot across the garage hitting the opposite wall.
I had a similar problem years ago after one of the cogs shattered literally, took it to bits rebuilt it according to the manual but it selected two gears at once and locked up. After a while of pondering bike in bits again I noticed that a washer? Spacer? was in the wrong order on the shaft in the diagram switched it over and all was o.k. might add that once the gear had shattered I could go down the box but not back past second cos part of the gear had caused a nick in the selector shaft but once stoned down all was ok.Perhaps someone else could verify. I’m sure I`ve seen a mention of it on this site may be worth a look through this forum. Hope this is of help.........just had a look through some old notes and i see part 36 should be between 38 and 39........
I have just rebuilt my engine (reed valve type), and am having trouble with gear selection. I can get the first four gears but it doesn't want to go into fifth, does anyone have any tips on where I might have gone wrong. I thought that I had put it together according to the diagram in the manual but perhaps not. Any ideas would be appreciated thanks.
They should be disqualified for this!
