Don't know what Jets are in there as I don't have that info where I am right now. How about ignition? I run the stock Spiii Digiplex but had to also use the flywheel to match. 95

Is it something that was discovered by users afterwards? Should I replace them with flats?

I looked on Schnoor's website and the smaller ones (13mm o.d.) are spec'd for M8 bolts. No idea why the 15mm ones were also on there. Has anyone seen this? The flat washers are so that the schnorr washers don't embed themselves into the soft alloy swingarm. 97

General Discussion / Re: Acceptable play in V50 ujoint?« Last post by Antietam Classic Cycle on March 16, 2024, 08:40:09 PM »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? Yes, used that several times. Very good quality and as far as I know, durable. 99

The stock ones on my 2020 Eldo were absolutely awful on sharper bumps ! I live in New Jersey. There isn't a smooth road to be had. Big improvement. 100

I shoud have gone with my first color instinct of a darker red, but this color matched the V7 Sport pictures I saw, and it's called "Tomato Red", so....
Got the steering head assembled with new bearings into the old races, which I swapped top for bottom. Feels fine, no notches. The ujoint had some play so I had to order one. If I were smarter I'd have checked it when I disassembled it rather than tonight during reassembly. I found one at http://www.theujointstore.com, hopefully it shows up in reasonable time. Weather was nice here for a few days so I'm getting impatient even though the body parts are probably 3 weeks out. Someone added extra washers to the rear drive to swingarm connection.
