1.f Norton SOHC Timing Case & Crankcase Parts

First and foremost i would say it is not recommended to fit a half link (or link and a half as it actually is), but I know that on some rare occasions you may have an unusual timing covers where the chain can either be too slack/tight with standard links. Therefore this item is for a Reynolds link and a half to fit Norton magneto chains

This is the phosphor bronze bush fitted to all SOHC inner timing cases, which is the bearing for the oil drive gear. These bearings are often badly worn on original engines - easily identifiable because excess oil will collect in the outer timing case space (the area containing the magneto chain), and is the outer cover is often not fully oil tight - hence it leads to a common oil leak. This bearing is specially made for me with the correct inner scroll, which stops short on one end, so when fitted the oil will not leak out into the outer timing case space. It also has a slight lip on the same end to aid fitting. Comes complete with fitting instructions.

Update 20/01/16:  Please note, a customer recently reported to us that he tried to fit one of these bearings to an original timing cover and found it slid in under light finger pressure - It should need to press in, i.e. an interference fit.  We had these bearings manufactured from an original pattern, but having checked have confirmed that these bearings have an external diameter of 0.6865". His original bearing was 0.688".  Therefore please can we suggest you check your original bearing before purchasing this one  - if your original bearing measures greater than 0.6865" outer diameter - then this bearing will not be a suitable replacement.  Apologies for any inconvenience this causes
