T8Hants 10 Posted June 17 I do need help on this one please. My 3HW came without a clutch rod, I was given one that I was told was correct and it has a dimple in the end, which to me suggests it might use a ball bearing to run on as part of the system. So some simple questions, is my clutch rod correct for the bike, should it have a dimple in the end, does it need a ball bearing to operate? At the moment my rebuild is stuck as I can't get an answer to what I thought were simple questions that every Triumph owner would know. Help appreciated..............Gareth Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ron 19 Posted June 17 Gareth there is a thrust button in the clutch pressure plate with a blind hole that I put a blob of grease in before assembly. The adjuster at the other end of the push-rod has a ball end. Both are available from Draganfly (look under pre unit twins, they're all the same) Ron Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T8Hants 10 Posted June 17 Thank you Ron, I am beginning to understand now, I have both items present and can see which way round the rod goes, so I can start reassembly. I had something in the back of mind about about a ball bearing, but that was clearly not involved with the 3HW. Thank you very much for your time! I am desperately trying to get the bike ready for the Havenstreet 40's weekend and at the moment, for every one forward its two back. Gareth Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
