Parts Quiz

[RichardL]

What is the smallest part to be found on our bikes? I believe I know. I'll concur if someone names it. If someone names something smaller the quiz can continue until an even smaller part is named.

BTW, I'm not playing this game because I'm bored, I'm just procrastinating searching for it.

Is it allowed to be worn down by use but still function? The ball bearing thingy on the clutch arm that pushes on the end of the push rod is well worn on mine and still works!

I dropped 67-1401 and I can say its pretty hard to find on a shed floor

Scavenge pipe ball bearing?

[RichardL]

I don’t think the clutch arm ball bearing is a part unto itself, nevertheless, pretty sure it’s bigger than my missing item. 67-1401 may be twice as big as the subject part, as is the scavenge pipe ball.

Anti wet sumping bearing?  I'm guessing this is a specific, numbered part rather than a component of something else.  Racking my brains.  Any clues?

01-4675 - fitted it today.  But its listed as a generic part, not a 67- or 42-

The felt wick which fills the small hole in the cam ring on the magneto. Also, maybe the button under the points spring on the brass type points plate.

The fibre washer on a monobloc carb on the pilot jet?

[RichardL]

The felt wick which fills the small hole in the cam ring on the magneto. Also, maybe the button under the points spring on the brass type points plate.

Bingo! Cam ring wick is smaller than my item which “was,” in fact, the button under the points spring. “Was,” because it’s still missing.

This is turning into a list of all the things I've lost.  I bought a cam ring and didn't realize it came with the felt thing until it fell out the envelope and promptly disappear.  Only to reappear a week later after I'd cut up some felt and made one.

After fully sweeping with a fine paint brush beneath the bike where the Greasorb gravel lives, and sifting the gravel like panning for gold on Gold Rush, I gave up and turned one on the lathe using a wire splicing nut as the material. Haven’t tried to fit it yet.

Here it is, apparently fitting.

The screws that hold the speedo dial onto the mechanism. Drop one and try to find it. 😁

The small brass washer which goes between the spring and moving point on the brass contact assembly?

The small screw which fixes the spring to the body of the contact assembly, you know the one which gets catapulted across the workshop never to be seen again when you dismantle?
