Re: Clutch woes 1976 R60
Ok. Looking at the schemes on Max, the newer ballbearing also I believe is matched to the new piston.
So needle it is. And will create that regular TLC regiment.
Especially given the unfortunately constant feathering of the clutch in this metropolis, necessary evil.

That brass fitting is an elegant fix.

Re: Clutch woes 1976 R60
Right right, ok, I remember reading somewhere how the piston acts as the race for the bearing. I can see how that all could come undone given the right circumstances.
So when replacing the bearing, one should go with the most recent part number. The ball type.

Re: Clutch woes 1976 R60
I am trying to visualize and surmise. Please correct me if I am wrong. Clutch lever is gripped, cable pulls, clutch control arm/piston/pushrod pushes forward against pressure plate which pushes against diaphragm, releasing friction plate from contact, putting tranny in a neutral state. Clutch lever ...

Re: /6 Starter switch rebuildable?
No Duane, you answered the mod part. It's me who should have been maybe more specific with my question. And that's interesting. I guess the mods I was wondering about were those that might prevent the kind of failure that happened. Which in my lack of tech knowledge I can only describe through the e...
