B44 kickstart

[woodrow]

I have finished off a B44 Victor basket case after 2 or 3 years of assembley.
It runs well and I am sorting and tuneing up.I got it down so it starts hot or cold with a kick or two.
BUT,,,,,
I cant seem to get the kick lever to return to up position.I put a new spring in.I have had it apart a few times and it sort of works after I put it togeather but after awhile it stops returning.Is there a gasket needed to space out this cover? Can I put another wrap on spring?(I dont think so).

are you sure the kickstart outer  bearing is in good nick and quadrants are ok i remember having this problem on a few BSA.s but renewed bearings ect dont think i ever renewed a spring and i had no problems after.And no you wouldnt get another wrap as you say
