Stiff one !!!

Postby Vega125s » Sun Nov 02, 2014 1:24 pm

Just got back from following the London to brighton veteran car run.During the last 20 miles the clutch became almost impossible to pull in and change gear, haven't checked anything yet but was wondering if anyone had any ideas? oh its a ts200 long stoke and a rocho clutch.

My guess is the steels have cupped, happened to every Rocho clutch I've fitted.

Turned out to be slight wear/kink in the outer cable from the steering stop.
The cable wasn't t that old , positioned behind the throttle wheel as per but on full lock catches the stop.
Many thanks for the answers gentlemen .
