86/87 actuator arm
« on: February 05, 2010, 04:12:25 AM »
on my 86, the actuator arm runs in a bushing, and on the 87, which are SUPPOSEDLY identical cases, the arm runs in needle bearings.can i remove the sleeve and run needle bearings on the 86????  thanks, kwakman
And lo, I did loft the front wheel and carried it forth to the unbelievers, and cast it down before them and said unto them ''look now upon the might of my throttle control ye pitiful cretinous ones''
And the unbelievers did quake in their boots....

anybody got some 87 cases which they can measure the bore of the actuator arm housing so i can compare them to my 86? dont even have to be 87 cases, anything after 86 should give me a measurement of the arm housing bore so i can work out whether i can run the bearings and i'll do the rest. pretty please with sugar on the top........ :wink:
