Hi All
Thanks for letting me view this site and get so many of my questions answered just by snooping around. I acquired a non-running 1972 commando (Previous owner says it's a combat) Today I got it running after it's been sitting for many years!! That was a great milestone. I have a question about my clutch. I followed all the advice in the many posts, I bought the tool, completely disassembled the clutch plates cleaned them all and reinstalled them as they were. Despite this, my clutch will not disengage, I tried adjusting the cable at the lever, I tried the screw in adjuster at the pressure plate. The plates are clean and oil free. Curiously, even when the tool is installed and the spring diaghram spins freely, I am unable to push the bike in gear with the clutch in. Am I missing something here? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks-Larry
