I have it from several sources that the oil pump should be changed whenever a roller conversion has shown tapped wear. It had been found that the very fine metal particles could increase the clearance between the pump gears and so reducing the oil flow. Still made more than 5psi which keeps the oil...

When your 2011 engine was changed to rollers instead of flat tappets did you change the camshafts as well? I've heard anecdotally that the flat tappets can damage the camshafts although I guess if the camshafts look and measure fine at the time of the change, then there's no need to replace them as ...

That cable size should be perfectly fine, I wouldn't go any smaller, no harm (only cost) in going bigger. Car Builder Solutions do a range of cable sizes for starter motors, maybe worth a look. I also found this on the web which may be pertinent. Moto Guzzi starter motors (Bosch/Valeo) typically dra...

Are you thinking of replacing the clutch because there is a known problem with it or because it seems like a good thing to do as part of the new build? If the latter then it might be worth considering how many miles the donor bike has done and how many miles a year you would realistically use the Ty...

The ammeter measures the amount of current going into or out of the battery so it needs to be wired in series with the main feed from the battery to the electrical system (though not the feed from the starter solenoid to the starter motor). You will need to investigate your particular wiring setup t...

Will it be possible to park a towcar and trailer onsite or nearby do you know?

Thanks Dave

Congratulations on joining the club! In order to gain access to the tunnel for the fuel hose (and the gearbox linkage) your best bet is to safely raise the whole Triking up as much as possible, otherwise you'll be on your knees, bending right over it. There is limited access to the tunnel from under...

If it was mine, I would grind off the inside of the body so that it follows the curve of the lower chassis rail. Whilst the fibreglass can be flexed and possibly have the flange forced round, any prolonged force can cause gel coat cracks to appear, spoiling the paint finish. You will still be able t...
