Late Clutch Centre 3355-57

I need some advice on my clutch, please. Is it essential to use clutch centre 3355-57 if a later clutch drum with friction inserts is fitted, or can the earlier type with the 'tags' on which the first plate abuts be used? Can the earlier clutch centre with 'tags' be modified so that it fits in the s...

Re: Ariel Riding and Fixing 2023

B****r!
I recently sold a complete, unused Enfield disc front wheel, caliper, m/cylinder etc. Having sold my Bullet, I thought that I would have no use for it. Now I know better..... :(
