General Discussion / Re: Acceptable play in V50 ujoint?
« Last post by Antietam Classic Cycle on Today at 09:52:56 PM »
Hey Jim, I see the only specs on the TUS-1MG are  20x44mm.
That website shows two different sizes available.
Is that width/length, caps diameter?
Is that what your cross measures?
Just wondering how to identify what I need on a similar bike?
.

20 mm is the diameter of the bearing cap, 44 mm is the width of the "cross" with caps.

General Discussion / Re: V7 II Cylinder Knock

Unfortunately, I would think that you would need to disassemble the motor as you say.  But- it really is just a thought.  My guess is that any cylinder with a mis-shaped cam lobe would run very poorly.  Hugo's suggestion of temperature would be the first thing I'd do (because it is easiest!).

General Discussion / V100 - muffler end can
« Last post by Fitzig23 on Today at 09:01:06 PM »
Dear all

I recently installed an Arrow end can on the V100 and as expected to a degree, there is some assorted popping on over run during deceleration and indicative of lean mixture conditions. As with most modern bikes the system uses dual O2 sensors in a closed loop and one would think it will re-tune itself over a short time.

Does anyone know of a recommended way to force the re-tune? EG; Apparently with Triumph and some others there is a ritual of letting the bike idle until the cooling fans operate a few times, turn the bike off and back on again, stand on one leg and recite the declaration of peace etc. Am sure there is something out there.


thanks

On further inspection I discovered the most play was actually side to side on the gearbox yoke side-  between the end cap and its circlip. Maybe it was replaced/serviced and someone reefed on it in when reassembling?

The driveshaft yoke's bearing surfaces were dry and and a bit marred though I couldn't feel any surface imperfections.

Charlie from  Antietam Classic Cycle said he successfully used http://www.theujointstore.com/tus1m1.html as a replacement. It's suspiciously cheap at $28 but I'll give it a go :-)

  The petcock gasket kits are under "Gaskets" not Petcocks.

Harper's might have the gasket, best to call them and ask.

General Discussion / V50 BAP petcock rebuild kits?
« Last post by jamesfjamesf on Today at 06:47:08 PM »
Mine weep a bit - one when shut off still leaks a bit into the fuel line, and the other leaks out the front. I'm coming up with zero hits trying to search for it (here and on google) unless I want to buy a new petcock. Are rebuild kits just not available?

thanks,
jim
