    Hi, I bought an Aprilia air cooled 280 in a box. Had some bits done and started to put it back together. In the box with the Gearbox bits, ther is a tensioner of some sort which I can't place. Nothing the like on the SWM 125 and 280's I've rebuilt so far. any ideas ? I can send a pic but I wanted a first thought. Wierd, I usually fathom things out but this has got me boggeled.

     

    Thanks,

      Nope, no idea. Looks similar to the selector (?)  beneath 1st gear ?

      Hi Phil I'd be interested in seeing a picture.  Air cooled Aprilia ? Mono or twin shock ?

      Re your question about converting swinging arm to needle bearings. I haven't converted one, but I have replaced a silent block one with an alloy one with bearings, night and day in performance, so definitely worth the effort

    This guy is a professional keyboard troll. Would love to see you in a comp or anywhere in person. So many opinions and little modern day talent

      I think so, speak to Wayne, he said he is concentrating on lecturing, but still running the business.
