Bike back on the road....
It cost me..
£15 to have a new rivet nut fitted to chain at bike shop + £5 for rivet nut.
New clutch push rod (£38) fixed the slipping clutch.
A replacement push rod oil seal and a new oil seal/bearing cover plate (£11).
And to fix the damaged casting I used a greased bolt and a load of J-B weld origina, the new formula it has increased strength.
I screwed in the bolt to the end stop and then put the J-B weld all over the exposed screw threads and this created a new casting.
Left it 48hrs to fully cure added some more waited 48hrs to build up the lug...
Then removed the bolt it came away with a nice crack when a bolt releases. new threads formed out of J-B weld.
So used thread lock and a sprung washer to hold the original bolt back in place the lower bolt was torqued up.
I have ridden it 100 miles now and all ok....
Will check on it over the weekend.
