Default RE: Always remove the backplate!


ORIGINAL: Ram Jet

In 1976 I bought a new Norton motocycle after they went out of business - literally in the crate. Changed the oil and filter at the 500 mile mark. Drill shavings etc. poured out of the crankcase.

If you still have it, I'll be over to take that piece of junk off your hands.

Selling my '74 Commando Roadster was the biggest vehicular mistake of my life. I sold it to finance the purchase/restoration of a 1980 Triumph TR8 car, but that's a whole 'nuther story.
