[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 43162, member: 597"] Hi again Howard, yes i had the same problem with my wife....explaining to her that i had only been wrong once.......and even then, she was mistaken....!! Do buy yourself the starter kit.....you wont be dissapointed, there is a little bit of machining involved, and be mindful of the minimal clearances with all the parts within the kickstart cover.....the spragg clutch is quite large in diameter, and allowances must be made for the kickstart ratchet and the quadrant to function without jamming. But all will become apparent when you start fitting it. The spragg is pretty maintanance free, the issue i had with one was because of damage to the seal causing loss of grease.....an interesting side effect is that whilst the bike is in gear (with engine not running) the bike cannot be wheeled backwards....and this feels really odd..............Cheers.....Greg.
