Hi List:

I took some time tonight to add some pictures to the triumphowners web 
site below.  I created two new folders of pictures.  The first is a few 
images of my recent clutch woes.  Included is a picture of the dreaded 
broken clutch pin and also a picture of the clutch disc with broken 
springs.  One final note to this saga.  After trying the conventional 
way of bleeding the clutch by depressing the clutch pedal I decided to 
get a little creative.  So this time I wired the clutch slave cylinder 
pushrod so that it wouldnt move and then proceeded to take off the 
clutch slave cylinder from the gearbox.  I tilted the SC down until it 
was vertical and then tapped lightly on the side and a lone bubble came 
floating out and up the plastic line.  I am not sure if the slave 
cylinder was just tilted slightly the wrong way and wouldnt allow the 
bubble out via normal bleeding procedures.  Thought I would pass along 
that little tidbit.

I also added a handful of pictures from the recent British Invasion in 
Stowe, Vermont.

As soon as I find the time I will also post a few more TR6 ads that I 
have collected but have not placed online yet.

Cheers.

Aaron
