Question 1. There is a tap on the oil feed line from crankcase to cooler. Is this an on/off for a purpose. No carb heaters on this one.
There isn't on either of mine.
Question 2. The alloy clutch cover ( with elephant ) looks thicker on the flange and was wondering if it had still a gasket of rubber like later ones do. There are some marks inside where I was wondering if clutch when out was rubbing?
No gaskets on mine, but have you checked that the cover hasn't been pushed in a little at the centre? They are quite soft.
I managed to straighten the brake lever easily by hand......
Albie, I'd keep the original, but wouldn't feel happy using it on the bike. Ally work hardens when you bend and re-bend it, and a brake lever isn't a place to take a chance of it snapping whilst you are using it..............
I'm looking forward to seeing it back on the highway.
