I might try that on the rear wheel when i get to it thanks for the tipI found it easier to insert the spoke in through the hub first then out through the rim and give it a good drop of thick CA. Then trimmed them to length after.
Wouldn’t advise it Ian. The swing arm bearing design was absolutely rubbish. Vastly over complicated, wore very easily, and was expensive to replace……mine even broke the securing pin twice!I considered a real one of these a few years ago as a project bike to make as a Cafe racer. I was amazed by the prices they went for.
All these bike builds of late I will have to try one (again) some time...
And that is why I did not buy one... Think I would rather have Elsie back anyway.....Wouldn’t advise it Ian. The swing arm bearing design was absolutely rubbish.

I had a 250 & 400 rd 2 stroke rapid and new piston and rings every 1000 miles, broke a con rod once flat out on a long straight, it jammed under the exhaust port left a 100ft skid mark on the road as wellYamaha 250/350 LC is my guess Absolute suicide machine. Mate of mine had one….you could ride the 250 on a learner license in those days.
