      Hi All,
      Could someone please put up photos of the above as I am having problems where to route the throttle cable which is rubbing against the flywheel.
      My motor has a fixed tiller arm which comes off a stub of metal, about an inch long and is part of the front of the crankcase.
      To the best of my knowledge this system was used on the early Minus 40 motors before the design was changed to the folding tiller arm style fitted to later models
      during the late 1950s.

      May I add, that I have hunted high and low on the net but cannot find any close up photos!

      Thanks in anticipation
      Monte NZ.

        Have you tried posting or looking on “Saving Old Sea Gulls” site? Much more likely to get help there.

              No Problem Kiwi
              I hope thats ok to say
              The internet says its alright
              From Wikipedia,
              Kiwi (/kiːwiː/) is the nickname used internationally for people from New Zealand,[1][2] as well as being a relatively common self-reference.[3] Unlike many demographic labels, its usage is not considered offensive; rather, it is generally viewed as a symbol of pride and endearment for the people of New Zealand.[4] The name derives from the kiwi, a native flightless bird, which is a national symbol of New Zealand
