S/A outer timing cover Wanted

[duTch]

 Yo're a day late- hopefully ity quilt be off for a while, at least until the next oil change- which will be soon anyway...

 Took a couple of pics of the work in progress... there's a logo below 67-287 iodide,  but can't quite rag what it says,  but may look familiar to someone who knows what to look for... all buttoned up now,  just have to seal the small cover and see what happens...

I have not been to the pub, dutch then you drop the maggy nut and spring washer into the case if its manual, but what is the point of this mod unless your having a tacho ----nearly pub time 12 hours to go

 bergs, the theory is so that I don't need to pull the cover if I need to pull the maggie.....

can of worms , very thin fingers, telescopic magnets and o fuck i'me struggling to time this ba*t**d up springs to mind...…--- but if you need to take it off and you are putting it back on using allen screws don't forget to put the long part into the head and tighten using the small leg hence putting a sore spot on the thumb and not stripping the threads

Hi a101960
Had to read through the thread to see if you got a cover I saw one at the autojumble I was at this weekend, the guys prices appeared quite reasonable and the parts looked good. I have contact details if required and could collect and post them on. I also saw and have previously purchased timing cover screws (fillister headed). These are by a guy who is at most jumbles I have been too ‘paddy’s classic bike parts’, his specialty is AMC stuff but he has had these for a while. Be careful when buying as the odd non filister has crept into some of his sets.

 With an  ATD out won't really matter'cos outs all caprice,  but with a manual a small podgy (Or a bristle from a road sweeper ) can be used through a socket or tube spanner after the nut cracked, it shouldn't be a problem... especially if it's magnetized...
 The worst that can happen is to need to pull the cover to retrieve it...woulda had to do it anyway 
 Maybe I will add a tacho now that I can.... or at least the drive casing and other visible bits....maybe 

 PS- I don't heave on the Allen keys much- I've learned to know my limitations- to a degree
   I'm at a different pub  from where I started this 8 hrs ago... just out test riding..

It's a bit hard to decipher the logo, the best i can do on mine is CBM or GBM.
The same is on other covers, carroted and uncarroted. (Pipped and unpipped)

 I'l try and remember to have a look next time I pull it off- even after this episode it'll be hard to forget, but I reckon I still can...
