My understanding is that the clutch pieces from an R26 or R27 are different from the Isetta 300 versions. Can anyone say what those differences are? And are...
... The pressure plate & clutch-can are the same as isetta and can be used, no problem. The disc is different as the cycle ones have bonded linings onto a flat...
... ahh ha! so the cycle disks tend "grab". That would explain why mine never did that but other Isetta owners had that jerky grabbing when taking off. I would...
... Correct. I suppose some people would just as soon order something new rather than hunting down a proper relining shop that will or even can do the job....
Isn't the jerkyness also related to how you set up the clutch lever? ... -- Cheers Mark Concord, CA [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
I can understand the "love it or hate it" situation with Steve Urkel. The twist with nostalgia is that what was naff at the time is often now condidered to be...
The bike clutch disc is segmented, bonded and thinner than the Isetta disc. The bike does not use the spacer ring against the pressure plate because of the...

So I have the Kumho 145/80-10 tires mounted on my single piece wheels. Was quite excited at the thought of finally having a rolling chassis. Much to my...
I AM RUNNING THE KUMHO TIRES ON BOTH OF MY ISETTAS . CLEARANCE PROBLEMS WITH RADIAL TIRES ARE NORMAL . THE EASY FIX IS TO USE SPACERS UNDER THE RIMS TO JACK...
John, Unfortunately, I don't have another motorcycle clutch spring to compare to. The Isetta used at least two different clutch springs, and neither of the...
If the wheel weight issue isn't solved with the spacer or drum trick mentioned, you may have to resort to stick-on wheel weights. I've had to do that on a...
