Clutch basket needle rollers
Maybe these things are falling off the shelf elsewhere in the world but
I've had great trouble locating them in the UK in reasonable batch
numbers.
There are 50 loose needles used in each clutch basket bearing on most of
the 250 engines & late model 175 MSDS engines which also use the bigger 250
clutch. Retained by thick grease on initial assembly this gets dissolved over
the miles leaving the needles free to fall out on disassembly - usually a
few escape to needle roller land never to be seen again.
Available in bags of 100 rollers.
Packet
of 100 needle rollers
£12.50 plus P&P

Clutch plates - Awaiting new stock
Happily for the hicam
owner both sizes of clutch plate are available both as plain & friction
plates. I've only seen them sold as either 5 or 7 piece sets for the small &
large clutches used on the 175s & 250s (& 175 MSDS) but I'm told they
can be found singly from some retailers.
Made by Surflex in Italy. They make replacement clutches for most bikes,
modern & classic, Brit & Italian. All you need is the part number. 5
plate set is S1051/C. 7 plate set is S2072. I keep several sets of both in stock
for my bikes can supply them at very reasonable prices if required or you
can order via any dealer with a Surflex contact.
