GT550J Borg Warner Clutch Required

Post by ChrisP54 »

Hi Everyone ,
I am looking for a Borg Warner Starter Clutch for my 1972 GT550J, it has the old 3 bearing clutch which I have tried to get working with new bits and pieces but still no good .
I know they are hard to find but somebody must have one
Anybody got one to sell or give any information on where I might get one ,I need to get it fixed as I will probably be Selling the Bike when its done .
Anyone Interested in a 5000 mile from new unrestored all original bike ,

Cheers
Chris

Unfortunately I've just sold my spare clutches of both types, so I can't help with that Chris.
Shame you're selling the bike, I'd hoped to get mine, yours and a couple of other gold 550Js in a line at Squires' soon.

If you like, then yes!
I'll call in soon. It seems things might be getting more sensible.
