Hi, does anyone know which way to orientate the rocker spindle shafts in relation to the rockers on the Electra X? The shafts have a little oil canal on one side and a hole on the other. Which one should line up with the hole in the rocker? Hope this makes some sense. Many thanks for any advice!

Robin, it's a guess because I really can't remember but one end is slightly longer than the other. I don't think it matters that much from when I was studying it. From memory both ends are threaded (8mm) and I think I went with the shorter end in first. Don't forget the wave washer

Do these rocker spindles have an inner 5 mm thread on BOTH ends? Threads are meant to facilitate pulling them out...
