You can figure out how far the bearing would move based on an 11/16" movement at the end of the fork. How long is a fork....11-12"? The pivot point is about 3" in? If it's 12" long with a 3" fulcrum, that's a 4:1 ratio. You're not getting 11/16" at the bearing.
Just pulled all that out of my hindend basically, but it's brainstorming.  |
Anything special or different about that bearing or clutch? How much movement do you think we need at the bearing for the clutch to operate properly? Thanks. |
