Possibly a broken/weak detent spring. You should be able to feel when the ball bearing engages in the grooves in the selector shaft, or a bent selector not allowing the gears to fully mesh.

The Harley tank suits the chop much better than the other one 👍🏻

No controls I'm afraid, but you're pushing on with that mate. Looks good

Took a break from doing the wiring on the chop and made some spacers for the rear sprocket, needed to come out 10mm..to clear the chain away from the tyre..I've got an old chain to use to align with,but just need a new front sprocket and a big socket to release the old belt drive sprocket

The sportster drive sprocket is a bugger. Think it's 1 7/8" (could be wrong) and it's not very thick. Most sockets don't fit well due to the internal chamfer on them and need to be machined to remove this. Remember that it's a LH thread so undo clockwise.

Cheers Mr Olds,I asked Mrs Stinkey to help me with removing the front sprocket ( belt drive) ..I don't have the correct size socket ( yes 1 7/8ths ) I actually snapped the leverage bar ( thin wall tubing) while she had a crowbar jamming the pulley 😥 needless to say ive not removed it yet? And to buy the socket is £20..😱

I might have one of those buddy. I’ll have a look in the garage tomorrow morning, and let you know. If I do I’ll pop it in the post. |
