Bail arm wont return

[gif]

Hi Guys

I have a stradic 1000 that has a new problem - the bail arm is stiff and wont return.

I have pulled it apart and cleaned it all out and re lubricated - but it was clean before I started

Any (sensible ) suggestions ?

thanks

Had the same problem with mine just after I gave it a litle service. Spring wasn't located quite correctly so it wouldn't spring back. May be the same thing otherwise I've got no idea. Hope this helps Gary.
Cheers
Bill
