Should look at the routing of the clutch cable, should go behind the frame tube, under the pushrod tubes. Center stand fix is really well done! Thanks for the video.
The machining of the custom bolt was the crucial idea for me. Any advice on how to carry out that design and produce the part? Seems you’ll need to be able to communicate that to a willing machinist and to get a reasonable cost. Your approach could have a lot of other applications. Thanks👍
Hi Mark, you have to do a bit of wiggling around to locate it at engine/frame end, then with the bike on the centre stand, a sturdy combination plier is all that’s required to stretch the spring and locate the hook around the lug on the stand.
@@markdoyle9184 1:24 originally there used to be thread in the lugs on the frame. So new bolts won't help. This "trick" is clever but you could also make new thread (by welding, drilling new holes en tap new thread or by using something like a helicoil).

Bmwilliant...,!
Why not use a helicoil to repair the damaged thread in the frame?
Tidy!
How did you get the spring on?
