Hey all- I'm the guy asking about the sloppy steering on a 122. Well I got her out yesterday for the first cut of the season, charged battery, fresh fuel- started right up and cut. I did notice I've got about 1/4 wheel revolution before I see ANY movement down at the steering knuckle: tie rod...- dplogman

Harry- could you clarify your comment about the axel in the axel channel? not following that part. It was steering fine when I crashed, I just went too wide and didnt hit the brake fast enough! I bet that pin tighten up will help a lot. D- dplogman

Thanks all for the steering slop suggestions. I've copied / pasted them into one document so I can read them carefully as I get in there to tinker. I dont need this old girl to steer like she was when new, just like it better than it is. She is after all, a worker. If the steering is a little...- dplogman

Kraig- Well I replaced the ball joints a few years ago, so I think those are all good. I really don't like that axel / cap connection. Seems like a bad design to me. Axel and cap should be matching splines I think. If I wanted to tighten it up I suppose I could drill it out and put a new...- dplogman

Cadets- My 122 Cub has some sloppy steering. I've read about replacing the (probably) very worn pin that rides in the worm gear inside the steering box. Remove deck and remove steering wheel to extract the steering column. I'm expecting a real fight in taking the wheel off. It probably hasn't...- dplogman

Dennis- No 122 doesnt park outside normally, she has been caught out in the rain earlier in the season. She's a worker, not a looker. I just don't like the ripped seat getting wet cause then my pants get wet! Sounds like a nice collection of past bikes. I've had the Beemer since 1994- 1986 R80RT...- dplogman

Dennis- Dave here with the 122 clutch issue. Well I went out last night prepared to do battle with the old girl. First started with a putty knife and a small hammer. I tapped gently between the clutch disc and the front pressure plate in several places as I rotated it. Finally, “pop!” the disc...- dplogman

Dennis, Matt, 122 clutch guy here... Is the way it is supposed to work like this: With pedal pushed to the clutching zone, (or any time the engine is running), the front pressure plate is stationary, the clutch driving disc is spinning, and the rear pressure plate is stationary. Releasing the...- dplogman

Dennis , Matt- OK, first I'll do the adjustment. Do I just need to obtain the 3/16" free travel on the pedal, or the .050" between the clutch release lever and the clutch release bearing. guess jockeying the engine around wouldn't be as involved as lifting the whole thing out. So sliding it all...- dplogman

Matt / Kraig- Thanks for the notes. The rear plate is loose but I think the front plate is tight. Have to pull engine to lube that bearing, right? I think I adjusted the clutch years ago, I've just been cutting with it all these years. This year (first time out of the shed for the season)...- dplogman

Kraig, others- It's Dave back with the 122 Cub No release clutch. I still am having trouble with the clutch not releasing (grinds-won't go into gear). Cut the whole yard last night without shifting even once and I didn't crash. The rear pressure plate is free and not stuck, teaser spring is not...- dplogman

Kraig- this is David with the 122 that has the sticking clutch. Can I lock that clutch / brake pedal down to try your idea? Also, would a drop of oil on those pins be of any help or is the input shaft the place that needs the lubrication? Dave- dplogman

122 cub- twice this season the clutch is frozen to the flywheel. wont disengage. I can do the whole yard in 2nd but can only stop by yanking her out of gear. When I cut a couple of weeks ago (before a whole week of rain) she was fine. Would a small drop of oil on the pins (3 or 4 of them, dont...- dplogman

122 Cub- On left side steering spindle where the "cap" attaches to the axel (there is a roll pin in there) Parts are old and there is play in the roll pin connection. Does anyone have any tricks for tightening up the top cap connection? she in a worker, not real worried about originality and I...- dplogman

Charlie- Well the deck on this old girl is pretty blocky, I think if I run a tape measure on it it measures 49+ inches wide. Not a stamped metal deck. I figured it was stock standard deck. It seems like the front tires flatten the grass before the blades go over it. I get an uneven cut after...- dplogman

Cub 122- If I have an original seat and fiberglass pan, does anyone have any leads as to where I could purchase replacement white seat vinyl? Is it pre-shaped in some way? I've seen U tube videos on seat recovering and it looks like a mess. Dave- dplogman
