What is a Sludge Trap? What is a Sludge Trap?   If you own a vintage 650 or 750 twin, then you've heard about the infamous "sludge trap".  Like many, if you haven't been there you eventually will!  Hopefully it's before your crank blows out the side of the case.  Propaganda or preventative maintenance, you decide.   The sludge trap is located in your crankshaft and does just what it says - it collects sludge, a thick pasty mud made up of metallic particles, oil, and other stuff you wouldn't want to put in your mouth. When the trap gets plugged with this stuff, you have an oiling problem.   The following paragraph is out of an article from Silver Machine, Vol. 2, 1989, "Trumpet Tunes": "...The standard cranks have a sludge trap in the middle which should be cleaned at least as often as the big end shells are replaced. Some say it's possible to do this with the crank in place by just removing the sump plate and turning the crank so that the bolt in the flywheel can be removed and with the timing cover off, blowing it through with an air line and some paraffin but this is not an official method..."   Thanks to HILLBILLYWVA from the BIR Denver for the following pics.

The $15 DIY bar end mirror

I call it the $15 mirror because that's all it did "cost".  I of course didn't count the time.  If you're using stock Triumph bars from the new Bonnevilles, you will not be able to do this as there is a threaded stop that the endcaps screw into. The first thing is to purchase a universal mirror such as the one pictured here Remove the mount and all hardware.  Cut the stem so that 4 1/2" remain from the bend to the end.  Run a fine thread dye up the end 2".  Now screw on a nut till it seats at the end of threads.  You will need one more nut, 2 washers, and a 1" long rubber bushing that's as close to the inside diameter of your handlebars as possible.  Next place one washer next to the nut you already screwed on.  Then the rubber bushing, followed by the last washer and nut.  The last nut should be right at the end of the stem.  Thumb tighten the nut closes to the mirror until it's snugs up the washers and bushing.  Slip the whole apparatus into the end of the handlebar until only the 1 nut is exposed.  Tightening that nut will compress the washers causing the rubber bushing to expand and secure your mirror.  The bushing also acts as a rubber mount that helps to cut down on vibration.  Voila!  Your bar end mirror for a 1/4 of the price.  ...and you did it!
