It's what was fitted before I dismantled the bike - it does seem to be under more tension than before?
Oddjob:
Spring looks to be the right one to me Ted, maybe it's been cleaned.

Oh and bottom bolt of the bearing retainer BTW for the guide.
Turn the clutch shaft and use the screw to check for gear engagement. Always do this before putting the engine in, just in case.

When I rotate the clutch shaft and rotate the tumbler with the JIS head I'm not sure what is happening aside from some clicking noises as I cant see inside?
I have a horrible feeling it will involve splitting the crank cases again - all the gear shafts & bearings were in position when I started Ken - it seemed to go so smoothly.
It is a different casing - my top photo before dismantling looks like the one below - what has your hyper vision seen Ken?
Trigger:
Hard to see from that picture but, is the kick start washer behind the circlip ?
