So after running her a while on clean oil, I finally broke the clutch loose last week by reving up in gear on the stand then sharply applying rear brake, eventually it broke free!
I’ve now got new tyres (I went for a trials pattern, as I’ll ride it a fair bit on scrabbly farm tracks near me and around the woods no doubt until she’s registered) , new braided front brake pipes, new bars, new idiot lights, carb kits and a master cylinder repair kit!
Hoping for a dry busy weekend!
