Mike. You have it backwards, 1660-9000 are 9mm and 1660-9010 are 7mm, I went through the same thing, yes I did end up drilling the carbs to use the 9mm ones, as there were no 7mm ones to be found.Sam Keys
I agree with Sam. I have a whole unopened bag of the 9mm ones, with part number 1660-9000
Thanks, Mike, Sam and all. Richard already replied and does not have the 7 mm float valves. My friend is going to see what he can hopefully cross reference. The other thing i imagine you folks have run into is the plastic of the neutral switch being degraded, which in the case of my GTR is allowing oil to leak. it sounds like Richard may not have that one. What have you fellows been doing in cases where your switch needs to be replaced? Kind regards, Steve
Glad you got the valves sorted, if you need to find some dimensions on sizes, try www.mikunioz.com . Tom Hatrick is very knowledgeable in this area.Also, Did I spot a J model Harley in the background?Hardy
The lower engine mounts must be removed upward. There is a shoulder at the bottom of the bore in the frame to keep them in place, so they can't be removed downward. The only way I've been able to change them is to remove the engine. Improvise a puller using a long bolt and a couple of sockets to pull them upward. That usually results in ripping out the guts, leaving the shell in the frame which then has to be cut or collapsed with a chisel.If anyone else has figured out something different, chime right in.
