re Bensport Series 1.
We send you herewith:
Lec.3413 showing the clutch pedal shaft, and levers.
The reason for the alteration is because there was a possibility that when the engine oscillates in the frame the mechanism of the levers might cause the clutch to stagger.
In the new design we feel that we have overcome this.
This modifies Lec.3401.
