Bought this bike in bits. Have noticed on the inside of the clutch pressure plate there is a needle roller bearing but can't find any part that fits the push rod which goes against the needle roller bearing. Can anybody help??

On the end of the gear box shaft the clutch push rod there should be a mushroom shaped piece ( similar in shape to a valve in a four stroke) with a machined face on the end This runs on the flat roller bearing The other side of the roller runs on the adjuser screw Inside the main gear shaft there should be a push rod (lever end) then a ball then the part as above After I assemble a clutch I would pull it in and gently turn it ajusting the springs untill it runs true then wire the nut on

hi thanks for that the only thing is now where can i obtain one any ideas

I'm sure Dave at Bultaco UK will have one. This part is common to many Bultaco Sherpa engines. If not PM me and I will send you one.
