Hi All,
Can I please pick your brains.
I am experiencing two issues on my 1929 16H. The first relates to the clutch. Although my clutch worm adjuster seems to be set correctly I don't seem to be getting full lift when I depress the lever, (which incidentally in this position is at least 3/4" away from the bars) and it drags. So when I engage first gear I can feel the motorcycle trying to move off. What can be wrong?
Also, although the 16H is an easy starter I am not getting the full use of the kickstart swing, as the first 1/3 of it doesn't seem to engage anything. Is it just a case of repositioning the quadrant is that possible?
Many thanks,
Albert

I have looked at several old Norton clutches recently and was surprised that they worked at all. a mixture of wrong parts missmatched springs ,plates not in correct order ,too many plates wrong pressure plates , too thin plates ,,buckled plates etc . strip and inspect all. and compare with parts lists and exploded drawing .
