Hi
Angelsea the week end didn't start well. Knocking on pulling away. Stripped the box to find the kickstart gear had lost 2 teeth (by the drilled hole!!!)
These had milled a nice slot in the case & rounded all the edges of its mating gear. End of weekend. Plenty of beer
Anyway I spoke to a nice man who says if you use a kickstart case you must convert the inner cover as there is not enough support? On bump starting the shafts separate enough to put the gears out of mesh resulting in the above.
Anyone got a picture/ info on this?.Been told Mick Hemmings converts a lot of Quaife's into kickstart boxes?
Thanks Chris
