Im new to triumphs, but have been rebuilding vespa and lambretta 2stroke engines for several years. This one has me stumped. My bike (1970 T100R)has been getting progressively harder to start over the last few weeks and has been burning a lot of oil- like a quart every 2 weeks ish - last night I changed the oil - 100ccs 20/50 in the chain case and 500ccs 80/90 hypoid gear oil in the gearbox. Then went to bed. THis morning, not only is the clutch stuck and wont disengage but I cannot get it started - it was running yesterday. Would a change in the gear oil do this? I cant even get it started with ether. I ahve good spark, plenty of gas, gas getting to the carbs...
Again, I am used to dealing with simpler engines, this is my first foray into 4T. I appreciate any information you can give, I ride the bike to work and while I can drive, its not preferable
thanks!
