Chuck Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Scud, it seems all I do is thank you. It looks like a pretty straight forward job. Now I gotta find/get the spring! They're cheap. The usual suspects have em.. Buy two. If you have a spare, you'll never need it. That's been my method, and so far.. it's worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scud Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I had a spare spring, but it was at home, not on the bike. I am certain that if I was carrying the spring under the seat that the one in the transmission would not have broken. There's clearly a causal relationship between parts under the seat and non-failure of related items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scud Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I carry relays - haven't needed 'em. I carry a tire puncture repair kit and inflator - haven't needed 'em. I carry some cash - haven't needed it (till recent camping trip when I donated it to the family for a trip to the camp store). I carry a spare plug and cap - haven't needed 'em. I failed to put a spare spring in my under-seat repair kit after doing the pre-emptive replacement recently - and I needed it. See? CAUSAL relationship established. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
