Thanks Darkness.
Yes there is "detectable play" in the sprocket, but virtually un-measurable. It certainly does not account for 70mm peripheral movement at the tyre.
This will probably prompt a bush and pin change this winter anyway.
The irony is that I was so pleased at how smooth the bike was after changing the belts for Exactfit this spring and checking the clutch for wear. I coated the drums with Graphite too and thought that the bike was generally smoother and quieter. The clutch rattle is certainly back with vengeance now though and there does seem to be more play in the tangs.
I always did think that there was a lot of play in the transmission train as a whole, maybe it's just my altering sensitivities? Maybe she's just not as young as she was and doesn't like those hard spankings anymore?
