does anyone on the forum sell these possibly modified ? I rather buy them from you guys then from mikes or something. I tried the mod but holes came out pretty crooked :/
I was thinking of doing this if I couldn't find anymore my hardware store might have some tubing that would fit the billA drill press really helps. I used a 1/4 inch drill bit and drilled a hole right in the seam where the two jaws of my drill press vise come together. I then put the clutch bolt in this hole. Tighten the jaws so they hold the bolt straight to the drill bit. I start with a small bit to be sure it's centered and work my way up. I go j till I drill the threaded portion of the bolt off.
Remove the bolt, dress off any burrs.
I guess you could take one of the bolts to the hardware store and get some tubing the right size to match the big diameter of the bolt. With the inside about the size of the threaded section.
Get some washers the same od as the heads of the bolts.
When you get the stuff home cut the tubing to match the length of the big part of the bolts from head to threads. Bolt, washer tube.

While we are talking about this can anyone tell me how tight to do up the clutch springs and what movement there should be on the clutch when pulling the lever in ?
..... and according to my Metric Converter 2.46 program, that would be 2.0066 to 2.4638mm, like I said 2 to 3mm. Neat little free program by the way .....
