Yes it felt good ,leg didn't bother me ....

The bike just surges and wants to lift the front wheel,it's going to be nuts once the power commander has been fitted and dynoed.

Spec is 1060 with worked heads,gen1 57's,renegade air-box,dual tigcraft,Gabro 255 chip....16/44 gearing.

ha ha I have 2 engines I could raid for spares ( although one is for a falco café racer project)..and the sprag at £80-£100 is it worth pulling an engine apart for?
.I'm in 2 minds to do it with a mate or get it to Griffs.

changing a   sprag clutch is a pretty straight forward job, takes a while and you need a hub puller and some heat,I can help ya if you like?

The sprag had that horrible sound when you shut off so I knew it was going to go and wasn't exactly quiet on start up...booked in with Griff for the 14th ...I can't be arsed..ha ha

I had an inkling it was Ktm parts required.

Yes the radials were the nuts......
