Hi guys,
looks like my sprag has gone. Its been straining to turn her over for a while but very intermitant. It might grab and fire one day but then struggle to grab and actually turn over the engine the next usually ending in flooding the bike. Also sometimes when you switch the engine off you hear a "clunk" ? like it sounds like something is "releasing or disingaging" from the clutch. Do you think I could get away with a new sprag bearing or do I need a new outer and inner sprag as well? I only ask as funds are really tight or I would buy the complete set. Tanks for any advice.

How long is a piece of string, you will never know until you pull it apart.

You won't know until you pull it apart and measure it.
When my sprag went last year my sprag housing and gear wheel wear worn and it took me about 3 months to find a in spec 2nd hand one. I bought a new sprag and 2nd hand housing. I know simple may say its a false economy but I couldn't afford new everything.

He means don't expect him to read your post as he's not on here much these days,a pm direct to him should get his attention though
Ok,go to memberlist next to logout and do a search for Coops,click on the result which will show him last on here on 4th june and send a personal message |

I have all 3 parts - inner, outer and sprag
Very nearly new. I bought all 3 from Ap – cost £268.25 plus postage. Fitted them all and engine turned over and fired up instantly - for about 1 week - then i wrote the bike off! :-( I bought the bike back off the insurance co. Anyway Ive taken them back off the engine and got them sat on my bench right now. I reckon theyve been used to turn over the engine about 10 - 15 times (if that). So pretty much brand new. Can take pics for you if you like. I would want to sell all 3 really - I didn't take any chances and replaced all 3 parts to be safe. PM me if youre interested |
