[QUOTE="lindie, post: 7664, member: 1466"] once again a weekend with the bike has passed and i'm confused a little more. i pulled the clutch cover off this evening only to be shocked by an unexpected sight. where i was figuring on seeing the normal servo clutch and it's workings, something was off with my picture. first sign was only three bolts, then the multiplate appearance of the mechanism, and finally the fact i'd seen this shape before in magazines. on nortons. [ATTACH=full]23253[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]23254[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]23255[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]23256[/ATTACH] a quick google shows it as being a pre 1957 norton clutch or at least parts thereof. and it works. anyone ever seen this sort of conversion performed? overall, if the dominator of the day and possibly the manx(?) were able to put their power to ground with a clutch of this format then maybe it should stand up to a sensibly ridden stevenage twin. the more i get into this bike the more i wish i had an inter celestial phone to ask my deceased uncle of it's oddities and get some advice on a few matters. perhaps i'll see if i can rent a ouija board.
