Hello, All!
I'm new here, but not new to riding or turning wrenches on bikes. For years, I owned and operated Jackhammer Cycles, LLC in Myrtle Beach SC. I know my way around motorcycles pretty good, so for me to ask a question like the one I'm about to ask is fairly unusual for me. But here goes:
I have just finished reinstalling the shifter and foot rest on my 83. But I can't get the alignment correct, as there are NO marks on the shafts. Does anyone have an idea of how to set an initial alignment of these? I have been through the manuals and they are not any help at all.
I bought my 83 2 years ago, and it came with a story, as it was a basket case. (Engine was removed to replace the stator, never replaced but a new stator was included.) But for $200, I was hard pressed to not buy it.
