Electra X Clutch Replacement
Posted: Tue May 14, 2013 7:33 pm
Hello Paul, Frank and Gwilly, I've changed the clutch on the bike today, I found distortion in the steel plates, so a clutch service kit was purchased and .......job done, it was an easy task after all, thanks for your help. Haven't road tested yet because of rain. Anyway another question, this is not R E related but about my Ariel Sports Arrow with white wall tyres. 18 months ago I replaced the rear tyre brought from Draganfly. There is something in the new tyre that is discolouring the whitewall inserts, a brownish stain creeps through the white insert, onto the face. It is very difficult to remove, I've tried all the rubber cleaners/ tyre cleaners and none of them perform well enough. I've tried all sorts of cleaners the only success I've had is a scouring pad and paint brush cleaner but this can't do the rubber much good. The stain does appear to be on the surface strangely enough ..........it's driving me mad .... Any idea's .....Dennis
