[Bragand]

Hi,
I am having trouble removing a fixing pin from the kick start and am expecting it to be damaged once it?s out. Any ideas where I can source a replacement..it?s part number is 207 and it?s bolt is 208.
Thanks
Andy

If you have not done so already, cultivate a local machinist (most of them like beer) as a friend. That's a very easy piece to make for someone with a lathe and a mill. You could probably cut the taper by hand with a file if you're careful. Parts for 100s are hard to come by, outside of Italy.

Or the local bicycle shop.

Soinds like the classic old cotter pin that used to hold our bicycle cranks on - 2nd hand bikes made in the 40s and 50s - we'd bash them flat trying to tighten them or destroy the threads getting them out. Cotterless cranks and square tapers were a modern invention!!

Those are the ones.
