Thanks, Brutus, for the good information. I might have a spare Ducati sprag on the way now.

Any chance of a few pics and details of the tyres and sprocket?

interesting info.
In the interchangeability list it says:
Bevel-twins sprag clutch: Rover car part number is 22A716. Please note that the outside diameter of the cage that holds the segments together needs to be turned down to 65.5mm.
Those are pretty cheap actually.

the original one (BorgWarner = BWX) should be one of this series:

Sure, currently I'm overseas. In about two weeks I can post a few pics.

Thanks, guys. One way or another, I'm confident I'll be back on the road again soon.

in case someone in the future finds this thread and wants to further investigate: in a german forum some guy said the DC4972 from Flamang, Germany could be a fit, too.
