Hello New Zealand:
Visited there in 1998 and again in 2001 - I still think it is the most
beautiful and peaceful country in the world to live in.
Same thing happened to me about 10 years ago. I just took a piece of
steel tubing that fit tight over the top of the rod and brazed it in place.
It
has worked well for me since. Never need to replace the rod or make it
out of anything more stronger.

Giday T people
Spring in New Zealand, so took the TD to work the other day. On the way
home
the bottom clutch rod snapped just at the start of the thread at the
front. I
got home under my own steam without the clutch - although intersections
were
exciting!
This was a new Moss part 3500 miles ago so a bit annoyed. I have ordered
another Moss one to get mobile again but I was wondering if I should use
the
old one as a pattern to get a new one made up in stronger steel using the
original yoke? Perhaps in stainless.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? If I do get one made up what is
the
best type of metal to specify?
Cheers
Douglas
