Kick start return spring?

[Nick]

Mine has finally given up and I expect its the original so understandable!

My question is what spring fits?

And is it just a case of taking off the front 3 Allen screws?

Hi Nick, welcome to the group!

If you search ‘Kick Start’ in the search bow you will find a string relating when I had exactly the same problem in May 2021. All now resolved with the help of the more experienced members.

Scott Parts has closed.  Try Clive or Smokey Paul - they may have one.  Also Arthur Farrow may have one in his spares.  Otherwise we may have to join the Scott Owners Club or get a friend in the club to access their spares scheme.

Yes,  access to the spring is gained by removing the three bolts holding the kickstart housing to the gearbox end cover.

Yes Nick I have some to be heat treated now

[Arthur Farrow]

I think the springs were Scott and available from Scottparts...a business now sadly closed

I may have one but if smokey paul is having some new made then that sounds good
