Check the flyweel take off the cover, solid ??? Well, pick up the phone call Malcolm Rathmell, Rhoda is answering and Malcolm is not home.. Now the fun Rhoda asket me what
May 26, 200521 yr For sure. I'm old enough and have been proved wrong enough to know that ladies always know best.
May 26, 200521 yr Hey 30/60 Thanks for sharing your experience with us !!! I have just ordered a 3.2 ,and really appreciate knowing that mixing the drain plugs can cause this problem. Sounds like it`s easily done, great to get such useful info off this web site. Thanks. ShercoH
May 26, 200521 yr it is great to know the solution to this problem, but it begs the question. Why does it have these problems in the first place? We all know thatSherco havent been on the go THAT long, but surely by now they should have learnt to check all of these things, admittedly we cant expect the world of them like we can with the likes of Montesa being backed by Honda and all, but something as simple as this should not have been overlooked by a factory hoping to produce a bike that will realisticly compete with the Montesa.

Not a problem with the bike, just who's working on it. Mix up with the plugs.
May 26, 200521 yr overlooked by a factory hoping to produce a bike that will realisticly compete with the Montesa. I noticed that in last weekend's worldround
