Hey... "Fat Fingers here again !"
In my last post here,,, two numbers are mistyped.
The first "5mm" should read " 0.5mm""... big difference !
The second ".5mm" should read "0.25mm"
** the 0.25 represents a light bearing lip such as one would find in an engine seal where the pressure gradient across the sealing lip is less than 1 bar. Whereas 'wear tracks' up to and exceeding 0.5mm are typically found in high bearing lips such as are found in hydraulic pumps etc...
Where one sees an exceptionally wide and well worn track, the seal lip has collapsed due to 'over pressure' and taken on the role of a packing rather than a dynamic seal !
On behalf of my fingers, I apologize for the errors....
Once again, Good luck and ride safe.......// Ernie in NH _________________ AMA,, American Deaf Bikers

I mean, I understand that in the normal case, there is adequate friction between the part the engine spins and the part that spins the transmission, but I don't see the widget that disconnects them when you pull the clutch handle. The linkage below and behind the transmission seems obvious, but I didn't have a clear understanding of how pushing that spring in the boot does anything forward of the transmission housing to uncouple the plates in the basket enough to let it all slip. If someone could explain this to me, referring to the pics above, I'd be seriously grateful. Gwen tried, but by that time we were rushing to reassemble and were exhausted. |
