What to do with this Flywheel

@zed @Paul Weeding @davidoft and anyone else who might have had similar?

David Oft and i took the engine out, flywheel looks like below, what should we do?

 

Off a type 4 CB 1700 if that matters

 

New flywheel

 

Yep, new flywheel time!!

Someone has been running it with a worn/slipping clutch and over heated it... The blue spots are where the flywheel has got near red hot!!

 

I could get a fingernail in the cracks

 

@Paul Weeding @paradox

I'm not sure thanks is the word I am looking for but at least I know

 

what size is it? (clutch disc diameter)

 

One of the guys over on VZi has just pulled his flywheel, and it was looking like that!!


Was off a drag engine tho

 

Lifes an ebb n a flow dude you just need to ride the tide
Its more expense and hassle now
But hundrends of miles into your camping adventures you will have the peace of mind that further problems have been avoided

 

Theres nowt like real life for properly testing anything

 

need to check, will pop out to the garage tomorrow

 

make a nice bird bath....

 

Clean it up, attach a clock mechanism and hang it on the wall.

 

@Paul Weeding I measured the clutch friction plate about 208 mm - 209 mm diameter … makes it a shrunken 210 mm I assume.

 

Have you got any instant metal

 

I blame you @davidoft it was fine until you took it apart

 

I misplaced the under cylinder tins whilst you were making the tea

 

where have you put them? I'm going to the blasters tomorrow … next time bring a flask
