on the way back from mersea on my normaly reliable tv 200 i broke down and after ivestigating found the rivetts on the flywheel had all sheered trashing flywheel and stator, there were 6 rivetts holding it together, ive bought a new one and noticed they now have 8 rivetts so hope this will solve the problem of rivetts working lose, has anyone else had this problem ?
