K/S Bush ?

[SMBH]

Would this be OK to get some one to make a new low gear bush http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261790122411? ... EBIDX%3AIT ?

The crankcases have to be split to change the kickstart shaft bush anyway. It's just a case of checking all the other parts when it's apart.

Did Gerry fit your Nova 'box?

Yes, Gerry fitted it and I was really grateful for the help he gave me on two CB77's and a Thruxton Velo that I have and was struggling to sort out. I was working abroad at the time and I didn't fancy taking all of this on even if I'd had more time. The bike in question didn't have a worn bush but I have another that has a floppy kick start and thought that just changing the bush would be an easy fix. Sorry, I take your point on having to do almost the same amount of work anyway.

That would work and you can sometimes get 'cored' phosphor-bronze which is cast as a tube, reducing th emachining time / cost.

I often buy stuff from these guys.....

In this case it doesn't look any cheaper.

Yes, good bloke, Gerry. You might have one of my neutral switches in your CB77. Small world.
