Paul he still needs advice on how to keep his Triumph gearbox oil off his clutch.

If he is sure it's gearbox oil it will need the gearbox pulling out and investigate the fit of the mainshaft through the fixed gear that drives the front sprocket. It's a bronze bushing from memory and replaceable but fiddly but to tell you the truth I can't quite remember how the unit 500's go together there..

If it's just a slipping clutch it could be a few things but proper setup is vital as well as using the right oil. I came to greif with the tritanic because penrite upgraded the HPR30 to an API standard effectively making it unsuitable for bikes with wet clutches. (Triumph is more 'semi wet' really)

A change to HPR 'Gas' and no more problem. (sigh)

Cheers

I'll try and meet you guy's at Kaiwharawhara and go around the bays but I have to meet chanceyy early arvo to get a ride out to poos' place so I wont be coming out to the Hutt if I do come. I'll see if the timing works, otherwise have a great ride!

Hey Hels I see Paul says he's a bit scared of you, well you'll look after my Bro' and not scare him eh? I'll be gone to Aus by then but he is staying on in Welly for a few days longer so I'm sending him on the ride because he enjoyed the last one. So look out for the guy on Mrs merv's DR650.
