andy_290 Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 Hi Lads, My Sherco decided to engage reverse gear on Sunday I spoke to MRS and Appleyards who were both pretty confident it was the timing. I've purchased a flywheel puller, but the RYP guide says I need a dial indicator and a timing pin to be able to set the timing back to the factory settings. Does anyone know where I can get them from? And any tips for setting the timing? It's the first time I've ever done anything like this Cheers Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasgasssser Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 http://www.sherco-moto.com/downloads/wayne...iming_Guide.pdf try this link for info on timing.You could use a drill for a pin.Dial gauges can be bought from any good tool shop or engineers merchants,but ther`re not cheap.Might be a good idea to ask your mates,somebody will have one.What you do is measure TDC using the dial gauge,then put the pin through the hole on in the fly wheel,it should match up with a hole in the stator plate.I have an 04,these dont have any alighnment holes,im assumed it stopped at the 03 models. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_290 Posted February 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Thanks mate, I've already downloaded that file from the RYP website, but it's for 2001-2003 machines. What's different on the '05 models from the guide? You say there's no alignment holes? Cheers Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasgasssser Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 (edited) i`m only assuming there are no holes because i have just had to replace my stator on my 04 290,there are no alighnment holes on that.The new stator came with a line scribed on the outside wich lined up with a machined lug. I had to ring rathmells at harrogate,they were extremely helpfull.Would recomend you do the same if you are having problems. cheers,Steve Edited February 16, 2006 by gasgasssser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_290 Posted February 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Cheers Steve, I'll get their number on speeddial ready for when I get it apart this weekend Thanks mate! Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john.b Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 The later models have a different ignition system and is checked by using a strobe light on the timing marks. I'm sure there is an additional download on the Sherco website for late 03 and 04 models, I would think the 05 will be the same.I'll have a look and see what I can find.

john.b Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 It's on the Sherco USA website on the service guides.It's towards the bottom of the page and shows the revised timing details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne thais Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Here is the URL for the manual. You can use a simple automotive strobe light to check the timing. http://www.shercousa.com/pdfs/sherco_ignit...ement_03-04.pdf Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copemech Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Just remove the flywheel and inspect the key. If it is stripped as expected just replace it and put it back together. Be sure the stator plate is secure and go on as the timing itself has not changed from factory, only the flywheel. There is a mark on the stator plate(at the top) that roughly alighns with the right edge of the top web of the case as I recall. don't mess if not needed!

andy_290 Posted February 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Awesome, thanks for the help lads, supplement downloaded and printed off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perce Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 so? which direction is it off this weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_290 Posted February 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 (edited) All ahead full today, no reverse at all thanks to the new stator. Been to Barnsley today, awesome there, they tape the sections up. Managed to do 4 laps without breaking down, must change my signature....

shercoholic Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 Those unlucky lads who have had to replace a Leonelli stator wouldn't happen to have the old one lying around for posterity would they ..or was it heaved at Senor Leonelli Lucas? Looking for the inner diameter of a 2.50/2.9 flywheel magnet, or the outside dia of the stator laminations as wondering whether the 1.25 uses a different smaller dia stator? Thanks guys.

copemech Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 Not positive about the Leonelli but i know on the previous Ducati systems tha weight was removed from the outer radius of the flywheel diameter for the 1.25 and the rest was essentially the same. I would suspect that the Leonelli systems are very similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
