I just rebuilt a noisy gearbox and it was only the input shaft bearing.

Of course I had to strip the whole thing to find that out... ::(:

The noise stopped when you got into top - or when you had the clutch in while stationary.

I was expecting it to be the layshaft bearings...

Today took a slight change of direction.

Phils CBR400RR that's been off the road for nine years.

A suspected carb problem was to be investigated.

The bike- not seen for a few years.

Image

The Gimps hard at work.


Image

Air box and all four carbs off.

Image

Image

Found what we hope to be the problem- a split petrol T piece.


Kevs first time as a pillion ;)

Image

Tucked in and ready for speed!

Sunday 'club' -first Sunday of each month.

Post by balmy » Mon Feb 24, 2014 11:05 am

A week early this month due to commitments next Sunday.
Again not that much Marina action.
First job was to fit a fuel filter to the Fun pickup. It wasn't fun doing it..... Fiddly but now the truck runs :)
Then it was strip a head off a spare TC engine to be 'Peter Burgessed' for the TC.

Image

Then we awoke my two Marinas that haven't moved since the day after the NEC show. First time I'm ever had the TC off the road in 7 years. Both had stuck clutches. The Special came free fairly easy the TC needed a wheel jacked up and full revs in second gear and a few jabs on the brakes to free.

Then fitted my new wheel arch trim. ( Thanks Kev )

Image
Kev fitted a new fog light switch to the special so it's ready for MOT once I get my rear lights back from being refurbed.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Phil wishing his legs where longer.

Image

Kev hoping he doesn't drop it!

Image

Also had problems with wheel studs and nuts on the TC.

Hoping someone can help- post in the technical section. Thanks.
