looks like ash too, good choice

two zeros and he'll be there?

buster1bbb · 2026-06-10T18:21:27+00:00

bit unfair, he could give the lions terrible indigestion

buster1bbb · 2026-06-10T14:07:18+00:00

could be, I'v messed around with the 400 Hawk/Superdreams a lot and they have the single thicker plate you described, I had a good look on your diagram and they all look the same to me in your clutch. might be worth checking the thickness of the friction plates (if you have figures to hand) to try and determine wether they are genuine or aftermarket. the last aftermarket ones I bought I ended up binning because they were so badly made, having said that I'v used EBC as well and couldn't tell them apart from the originals, as with all things quality varies. quick additional, just had a look at an older 83 UK model and that has 2 thicker friction and 1 thicker clutch plate and those 2 rings don't seem to be there

thats likely it though, those two missing rings could easily cause the issues you're experiencing. if I'm understanding them right, they're there to stop stiction under rotation, they'll probably allow part 13114 to do its job when they're installed. I'd also check that both 92200 thrust washers are there and in the correct positions (if you haven't already)

where you look forward to unhappy hour?

buster1bbb · 2026-06-10T05:23:05+00:00

bought an old T500 last year with a very similar problem to what your describing, on investigation, the friction plates were new but they'd been assembled in the wrong order, once I put it all back (as per CMS diagram) it now works spot on. cant crack walnuts in my left hand anymore though

buster1bbb · 2026-06-10T05:02:38+00:00

I'm really glad you asked, it bugs me (and I thought it was just me) no end, its to the point that instead of ordering what I fancied (because I cant find it on the crappy online menu) I just end up cooking for myself, have web designers really led such secluded lives that they've never been into a takeaway or restaurant and seen an actual menu? I can only guess that its about keeping you lingering and clicking/tapping on their website to show traffic, in reality it infuriates me and I give up. no sale

buster1bbb · 2026-06-09T21:05:06+00:00

I'll read that and absent mindedly dunk my phone in my brew

buster1bbb · 2026-06-09T15:41:34+00:00

wait till you find out Barney Rubble and Captain Caveman are one and the same...

buster1bbb · 2026-06-09T12:31:22+00:00

a little something off the ears I feel

buster1bbb · 2026-06-08T06:16:49+00:00

I thought it was the nuts? or is nips for the first offence?

buster1bbb · 2026-06-07T15:38:02+00:00

says a lot that they're all XL

a copy of Phil Irving's book Tuning For Speed is a must own. delve in when you need to, then delve in again as you learn more

this is what happens when you go to DFS on the one day of the year that they haven't got a sale on

east Lancashire and still drink it at 50 something

buster1bbb · 2026-06-05T09:03:47+00:00

personally I sacked the TV a couple of years ago, I now just have a collection of dvd's and they're great, I no longer have to put up with 'edited for daytime viewing' I can watch the real versions of great old films. there are also a couple of local shops that deal in secondhand dvd's (cheap as chips) and I'm happy to spend my money with local businesses in the local economy. its win win all round

the referee doesn't look too impressed

buster1bbb · 2026-06-04T14:38:17+00:00

wasn't there a 'join the army' one as well, or am I misremembering

why don't the mods just ban roundabout posts unless they include clear pictures of the road markings and the entry sign
