While we are on the subject, it is known by most readers that you can't just press a new eye for the Vincent big-end into the con-rod and expect it to run without failure. Likewise, most old flywheels have belling out at their big-end registers and can't just be pressed up and tightened after 60 years of contrary motion. There is one man in the Victorian Section who can still get the plot within .0005" I won't tell you about the errors he finds in Ducatis!P.S. the long stroke flywheel in the "Comet on Steroids" was obtained from Conway's and was within .0005" everywhere. I know this is "teaching Granny to suck eggs", but a lot of new owners seem to read the Forums before their books.
