Lots of Brits on holiday try, lots go home but never tell there mates what left them for dead in the hills

Absolutely cracking bike great around town had one for a few years in the 1990s same colour as that.
Make sure the decompressor system is working correctly otherwise they can kick back that hard they snap the kickstart idler gear clean off along with the end of the gearbox output shaft it spins on.
Full engine strip and new Gearbox output shaft did it twice once on mine once for a customer.

To be fair to Leiba, you had tacked it onto a topic about your Cub before I split the topic.

That's too nice for you Barker

If it's eating inner cables Barker, the problem is likely the outer cable. Renew the whole caboodle.

Thanks for that Capitano. I knew I'd not replied to a bike I know nothing about.
