cosa clutch for a T5

Is a Cosa clutch any lighter than a normal T5 clutch, I mean lighter by pulling the clutch lever. bought the engine to replace existing PX engine, rebuilt the engine earlier this year and it has been a bitch pulling the lever to change gear. And is it a 20 tooth clutch that would be used. Cheers Bruce

Re: engine stalls t5

try the easy stuff first. I had the same problem with a rebuilt engine. Engine running and would select first gear and it would stall, adjusted cable tighter and it got better still hard to select 1st and 2nd when coming up to junctions. Adjusted cable a bit tighter and it now selects gears easy.

Beedspeed hydraulic kit

Looking to have a go at fitting this on my Mk1 PX. Does anyone have a photo of the handlebar mount fitted. looking to see how much or little metal to remove to fit it and how easy or hard it was. And how to route the hydraulic hose. http://beedspeed.com/product_info.php?cPath=76_89_111&products_...
