The rebirth of Lazarus
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I see you have routed your throttle cables down the right hand side of the frame (like mine) - bike looks brilliant in the video.
Looks like you did not cross your clutch cable through the coil hole in the frame was there a reason for this?

Hi Ted, thats the wrong cable for the high bars i have had the same issues as you with three different lengths so just temporary until i source another. the one i got from silvers had the nylon lining as per original but caused a problem as liner was damaged and made the clutch stick so loath to get another. I always route the throttle cables on the right and don't think i will put clutch through coil hole.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Only slight benefit that I can see in routing the clutch cable through the coil frame hole is it drops it at a nice angle into the carbs depending on what coils you have. Looking again it might be best as is.
My cheap Wemoto cable is the DB's for a neat fit it has no spare loops anywhere - clutch action feels like it is working ok.

working on the petrol tank, rubbed down to bare metal and primed. Was de rusting the inside but has revealed a hole in the bottom of tank. A bit cheesed off cos it looked solid so will have to decide how to proceed, repair or replace, damn it.

Lazarus continues to resist, still not sure what to do about the tank, was looking at the ones on ebay from India as brand new is tempting, has anyone any experience of them? Still having a problem with the clutch operation, originally fitted an OEM from Silvers but caused a problem releasing as the nylon liner was damaged. tried one from ebay which worked ok but was far too long so got another silvers one and still having trouble. Before fitting to bike but fitted to operating mechanism in cover it seems to operate correctly but when i fit to engine things seem to lock up and i cant get any adjustment on cable. I had loosened off the main adjuster on chain cover and pushrod is new, everything is greased up and free. Its very frustrating, any ideas?
