All forums tend to be pretty much the same in one fundamental these days and that is if you have a differing view then you're not part of the "club" and must therefore be admonished. It's just a reflection and magnification of our western culture at present.

You want to remove the gearbox to fit it or are you doing the clutch as well? I'm a bit meh about internal clutch slave cylinders. They are subject to more heat, harder to bleed, and if you get a leaking seal then it's gearbox out time. Advantage? no pivot arm( which never really fail) and no...
Zombie thread back after 3 years, nice. You should hear road noise here. They use "Chipseal" to resurface/make roads and highways. It's a coarse stoned bitumen and it's horrendously noisy and fatiguing on a long trip and you notice how bad it is when occasionally you hit a brand new stretch of...

For those interested in the engineering stuff I recently decided to make up some Titanium special bolts to replace the standard steel ones on a motorcycle project of mine. I'm no expert with the machinery so it was as much about the learning as anything else. One of the benefits of Ti hardware...
