Feeling a bit emotional about the old Ural beast - btw, have you named her yet? I think the bike is definitely a she - tempestuous, grumpy and sometimes a bit lippy, but in the end, you would not change her for the world. I am no expert (your post above has increased my knowledge of engines infinitely, having started from a big fat zero) but I assume old that dirt and muck on your friend mechanic's hands after he opened the thingie up is not a good sign. Long live the first clutch. Really good luck with getting things back on the road and PF 2010 guys!!! Oh noooo! Feeling a bit emotional about the old Ural beast – btw, have you named her yet?
