So, I have a dilemma with my H2B. I'm finally assembling my H2B after a couple of years of buying parts, rebuilding what I can and sending out things to be rebuilt. But when I was fitting a new front sprocket it has some play that just doesn't seem right. The sprocket is a JT sprocket, part number JT508-16. I bought this online and have seen this sprocket offered on other sites, listing it as fitting my bike. I went with the 16 tooth to try to get a little better fuel mileage, not so worried about the launch. I have another H2 motor and tried the sprocket on this output shaft too. Same problem. The old sprocket from the second motor fits a little loose too. Both new and old sprockets on both motors have some radial play.
Is this normal? Does torqueing down the sprocket overcome the play? I tried to post a video but it was too large.
Thanks,
Dave
PS, what is the torque spec for the sprocket retaining nut?
