I need help.
Well I am in the middle of a top end on my 02 220 right now. And it is also the first time I have ever done a top end. So I am really curious about something.. When I was disassembling it, I sheared the threads off of the KIPS governer shaft that runs into the bottom end.. And the worst part was that it was PLAINLY obvious that it was a left handed thread.. And I wasn't paying attention. Anyways, I had the right side covers off, and I put the new shaft in. As you all probably know, there is a little screw on the right side that fits into a groove on the governer shaft, that keeps the shaft from moving in and out. With the new shaft in, the screw seems to have no effect, and the shaft is still wanting to move in and out. I lined it up properly with an allen key and then kept it in the same spot before putting the screw in.. So it lined up with the groove. So my question is this: Is there something inside of the screw hole that slides into that groove to keep the shaft in place? Because if there is, I've lost it (what ever "it" is, I have NO idea what I'm looking for lol..) when I was changing the shaft.. And I have no idea how I am going to get it back in to the hole once I buy a new one.. Needless to say I am a little nervous right now. I really dont want to damage my motor by putting something back together wrong.. :( Help please.

I recently had the same problem with my bike, the power band kept coming on and off whenever I went over bumps. After a year of frustration and confusion I finally found out that there's supposed to be a little dowel pin that slides into that groove and keeps the shaft in place. A little 25 cent piece that you could pick up at Ace Hardware or any hardware store.

Hey guys sorry to keep bumping this thread.. But I cannot find this anywhere.. I need the torque specs for the 4 bolts on the front of the clutch. (The ones that go through the springs into the basket.) It looks like I am bolting into aluminum, so I didn't want to risk over tightening them. It's an 02, 220.

No, it's just that everyone should have a manual on their bike if they plan to do their own work. Subscribe to Cyclepedia or buy an actual paper manual. It doesn't really matter which one but get one of the two!
