dont even start me on those needle roller conversions .......as i said decades back when they first became the flavor of the month ......what are guys going to do when THOSE wear out the crank (and they do ) ........bet a few motors have been scrapped when they discovered this ... but i did say i want going to comment ,, and as for the black box ignition ... at least i have a chance of fixing my points on the side of the road

but i recon the much maligned A65 bottom end was actually pretty good .......50 years latter what can i say .... regular oil changes is the answer , not reinventing the wheel
