- MISTAKE WARNING: During the video I say that the oil lines should be crossed over. I am wrong. With these early engines where the oil is not fed to the end of the crankshaft the oil lines run parallel up to the tank.

Michael, nice video, as ever. A mod done by competition guys (and I did on my road C15) was to hacksaw the tail of that outer cover through, so that by removing one screw you could get access to the clutch cable/lever.. A lot of familiar stuff from 50 years ago here.... i used to cut the split pin short before putting it through the gear-change quadrant, (it was a right faff), but much neater than your effort!! Thank you for sharing your workshop again. Les in UK
So similar to the Tiger Cub. I had the inner cover off and on loads of times on the cub I used to have, made a mess with the gasket goo, until I realised you had to turn the ratchet anti clockwise a bit, very infuriating!
Thank goodness you're back Michael, I missed my fix last week. Happy new year
Your programs take me back a bit.had a few offroad c15s. I could never get the seal behind the sprocket to last very long. A large rubber washer cut from a old inner tube helped throw out dirt and mud.
HI Michael, thanks for the videos. regarding the kick start oil leak problem on the earlier c15s I tried the o ring solution but it did not make much difference and also prevented the kick start from returning correctly so my plan B was to machine a recess in the outer end of the inner cover and fit a oil seal, this worked a treat and did not affect the kick start ret
I love watching these videos. They’re like being in the workshop with you 😁 Happy New Year.
Bike is looking sharp. Happy new year’s, and cheers from Texas.
Like the warts and all. Another enjoyable watch Michael. Happy new year.
Loving this build and so close now 😀👍
Good to see you Michael, you just know ya gonna be on....................thanks for your time Sir
thats a nice job done there michael.happy new year to you all.
Happy New Year Michael really enjoy your videos .......:)
The forward facing hole by the Camshaft bush in the inner timing cover is from a timed engine breather. There is a tiny hole down at the bottom of the cover, easily missed, that allows oil that is blown out from the breather to pass back into the oil pump cavity. The little scallop out of the rear of the outer cover is to allow the pressure to vent to atmosphere.
Great video sir thanks so much. Keep em coming. Take care.
Bike starting to look nice, think I would have plugged the distributor hole, but understand why you didn't. Thanks Mike.
Happy New Year Michael Great video. Gearboxes gave always confounded me and it's great to see someone putting one together, including the tricky bits! My first bike at 16 was a 2nd hand SS80. I wanted a Starfire but couldnt afford it.The C15SS was fun but fragile and after a year was p/I'd against a T100SS. What a difference! Happy days!
Donno what it was like for you but that gearbox was frustrating for me, I did a similar box years ago I can't recall what on, could've been a C15 and my developing vocabulary vastly expanded. I saw the vid of your future projects and looking forward to them. Thank you for the vids over the last year Michael and Happy New Year to you and your family.
50 years ago , as a know nothing 16 year old, I took the side case off my C15 ... and all the gears and stuff fell out onto the dirt floor.... I never did get them all back in properly. That was an SS80 by the way..... with a megaphone silencer it was a bit loud ...
Hello from south of France !
If you put it in top gear the split pin goes straight in then move to first to turn ends over
