Just finished a 1500 rear wheel and final drive upgrade on my 85 Aspy 100 kilometers on it and no problems.The saddle hight is a little higher because of the 16wheel in the back but it sure shifts smoother a lot less clunk when I change gears and hardly any when the speed and R.P.Ms are right.The change up wasn't that bad a job really worth doing I think will take it for good run this weekend to see how it performs.

Hey exavid on July 22/05 you wrote in reply Oregonwinger wrote:

I think your problem is going to be the torsional damper in the final gear shaft in the transmission. If the cam, wears or the spring weakens, the cam can jump. If it wears enough you could get a multiple machinegun sound out of it.

My question is what is this sound a precurser to that is what isdamage can be done from this,and what is the fix for it? Thanks .

Thanks exavid for the quick reply.Since the 1500 wheel upgrade to my 1200 the machinegun sound you described has decreased and withwhat yousay in your reply to my question I won't worry about it for now and I will take it easy on lift off.

Thanks
