If it's come off I'd say it's fairly probable you took the splines with it...

Try a breakers?

I know a bodge for this....but it damages the kickstart shaft too so only use it if you knackered the splines on that.

Buy two 4mm drill bits.

Loosen off the pinch bolt.

Drill both drillbits halfway into the gap between the kickstart clamp and the shaft, making sure you drill into both parts. Leave them in there.

Tighten pinch bolt.

Snap off drillbits flush with the edge.

Fixed for a quid. Wink

at the moment its a race of how much money you can spend on it before the engine falls out while you're riding it....

If you really think cars are better then bikes, find a car forum, and er, a car.

Meh, don't start with the whole bike vs. car debate. Both are better than the other at different things.
