RE: [ST] Rear Sprocket Freeplay?

["Daniel Wallander" <triumph99@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rich,

All I can find in the Triumph service manual on the cush drive is the
following on p 11.20:

1.  Thoroughly clean all components and inspect for damage, wear etc. Renew
as necessary.
2.  Pay particular attention to the condition of the cush rubbers,
examining for splits, damage, softness etc.

There doesn't seem to be a spec for this, but if you see ANY damage, wear
or softness, get new parts.  There is some normal freeplay here and you
should be able to see any damage or wear.

Dan.
