wow, that looks great deejay! So you kept the es outer primary cover? where did you get the inner cover? why exactly do you need to retap when you are keeping...
Thanks! Yes the same 5-speed outer primary cover can be used. In India the 5-speed KS only is available as an option, so that inner cover is a factory item....

Sorry I've put this in the wrong place. Can anyone remind me how you measure the play on the primary chain? The book says 5- 6 mm. I can't measure to that...
My ES inner primary cover has grooves worn in from primary chain appetite. It's one of the reasons i want to convert. I've had the my starter/stator/ removed...

CJay and deejay, I, too, noticed this in my primary case and, though it looks machined, as in deejay's photo, I put it down to a "wearing-in" by a properly ...
Hi Jesse, I feel that the RE more than fairly represents the old British bikes, and it in many ways is one. The primary chain is easy to adjust compared with...
