Its a 1970, 20-MS3/140I didn't touch the clutch when I brought the bike out of storage, other than to check the adjustment. The primary drive had drained itself over the years, so the clutch wouldn't have been submerged in oil, but I guess any oil left on the plates when it was parked all those years ago, will still be there. Its stretching my memory, but I did upgrade the clutch plates some time in the late '70s to some that could cope with oil. Would that have been cork plates to bronze plates? The details of the upgrade have gone, unfortunately.The levers were one of the first things I bought when I started the refurb six months ago, before I'd found Andover Norton and RGM. They were some plated steel replicas off ebay, their pivot radius is 1"
