Anybody else has this happen ???
And any idea why ??
I did have the engine apart to replace the rear hub bearing and seal a couple of days ago but it kicked over fine . Then yesterday this ???

this is why the later cases had the ribs in this area ...you dont say if you had high comp head ,kit barrel ctc

Yes I do, its a long stroke mugello with a reed valve . Not sure what the comp ratio is but it is a monster to kick over. So thats just progessive stress failure is it ???

yes ...as i said it was why later casings were modified

OK , Cheers .
Its a series 3 block with a S2 side casing in my Series 2 .
Am I right in thinking I`ll have problems with the kickstart hitting the floor if I put a Series 3 casing on it ?

no,just fit later sidecasing,with s2 kickstart lever

Cheers for all the help lads

That's fine. But you do realise the kickstart won't then stop against the casing. So you'll either have to lengthen the tongue or use a later S3 kickstart and bend it to suit.

do what he said

Has anyone else notticed the "3" on the casing?
