Hi
Just picked up a Valderado Clutch cover on the bay... It is exactly the same apart form the water pump which i can just use the original.
It also has a little breather coming from the water pump bearing case, which is sealed so must just be a breather to the shaft???
So hopefully i might be able to start this beauty sooner than i thought.

Re: Newbie
Yes, the little breather (either just a hole or a 90 degree bit of tube) is to allow any coolant seeping past the ceramic bearing to escape rather than going into the oil.warlock wrote:Hi

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Clutch cover on and she is running, took a good battery charge and a gallon of fuel, but she is running after two years of being off road.
Just the exhausts to sort... I found two sets in a day and now have a decision to make carbon can Co or Vipers???

Re: Newbie
Nice one, a bike back from the dead.
Now check the oil level; it always drops half a litre after being started the first time.....
Re the can choice- Vipers, if they're ali, Ti or SS sleeves, but CCC's if they're carbon fibre.
Just my own preferences, neither will disappoint.

I can't help you on those makes of cans,
Chris.
Re: Newbie
Yeh I notice the level is down slightly, I had the sump off too so she had a proper clean out. I must top her up before i start it again.
In the end bought both cans, will have to sell one set on ebay or hee once decided.
