Brass Skull...
8) A thread was drilled in the brass skull and fitted to the lever. A long arm clutch lever was made as leverage at first was poor. Using the existing clutch lever didn't give enough leverage and the bike would lunge forward in first gear. I made the long arm clutch lever from a piece of tubing and welded an old socket piece to the end which gave me that extra leverage required to set off smoothly. Greasing the lever and clutch (old gear shifter) helped too.
