  1. Nope! the early 1991 900ss and 750ss are dry clutch... Ghost's brother Rod had a 1991 white frame 750ss standard fitted dry clutch!

  3. I've found a decent picture of the clutch case, it's defo a wet clutch.
     
  4. That is a seriously attractive bike. You're right to ditch the Imola, it looks ghey in comparison:upyeah:
     
  5. Just bought myself a '91 750SS as a donor bike, collecting it on Saturday :upyeah:

  6. I like it, did not like your old one as it looks to dated for me.... Question on this radical one what does the blue fluid line do, one coming from clutch? It looks like a dry clutch so it can not be to operate clutch? Also stick with wet clutch man 2V plus noisy exhaust is lovely sound and dry clutch spoils it. Finally maybe get it bored to 800cc like S2r?
     
  7. The blue line is the clutch hose, oon the early bikes they were actuated on the same side as the clutch, and not with a push-rod from the other side like later bikes :upyeah:
     
  8. And a hell of a load quieter!
     
  9. Is it still dry then?
     
  10. No, it's a wet clutch :wink: An early dry clutch like the F1 is a rare thing.
     
  11. Well the one on radical looks like it has dry clutch open cover and cut-outs in case. Nice job fooled me.
     
  12. we seem to have gone round in a circle, of course its a dry clutch, early belt 900ss about 89-90 ish.
     
  13. The motor in the Radical bike is actually from an early 750 Paso with a Monty rear head :upyeah:
     
  14. ?????? What, explain or post link to explanation of this Monty head. Going to sleep but will read it tomorrow in train.
     
  15. My '91 750SS was also a dry clutch (with the letters 'HC' in the centre of the case cover) but I think the change to wet was also that year onwards.
     
  16. Luca, the Monty, or Montjuic, was a version of the 750F1, and came with a dry clutch as std. Chris, I think only something like the first 1000 750SS' made hade a dry clutch, probably because the factory had some left over in a box!
     
  17. The dry clutch conversion for the pantah comes up on fleabay for the pricely sum of £2k search under TT2.Early 500 Pantahs had cable operated clutch but were plagued by clutch slip thats why the hydraulic clutch was fitted to the 600 to try and combat this problem, if the clutch was anything less than new it slipped.
     
  18. Yep, and if you look at your crankcases, where they now attach the earth behind the rear cylinder is where the clutch cable used to go!
     
  19. Collected the 750SS today, and it's got an ally swingarm :upyeah:
