Sorry I neglected to specify that it is an Ambo 4 speed tranny. This deep in
to the project, it seems everyone is supposed to know what I am doing (lol)
Moto has the update kit. And I could go that route. But at thispoint the
whole bike is assembled and just needs wiring, one carb rebuilt and the tank
painted. Disassembling the bike is disouraging to say the least. But if it
has to be done...then it has to be done. I just want to see about options
first.
Of course I am under the impression that I can just remove the clutch arm
and put a new bearing in (al la BMW) or am I missing something here?
BTW has anyone tried using a BMW thrust bearing? (I am operating on foggy
mental recollection here) It seems to be a similar size. I'm asking before I
get out the calipers and disappoint myself.

Think David Otis may be able to help you out if you need a NOS Ambo bearing, if Eldo, think it is readily available, check with Mark at MG Classics or MG Cycle. Moe at Cycle Garden may be able to help also. Just went through this dilemma with my 71 Ambo, mechanic wound up buying an Eldo rear tranny case/cover and used the Eldo bearing which is much better than the Ambo bearing. Will find out if all is better probably tonight. Good Luck. Keith Ruff 71 Police Ambo Zerhackermann . wrote:
