Hi Malc, I think the guy who had it before us got blast bead inside the cases and this has choked everything up. Don't look like he ever ran it though so just needs a very thorough clean out and careful assembly...time will tell. :lol: |

By the way if you have a later gearbox, or even a 400 gearbox, it won't go up into second from neutral unless the layshaft is turning (ie bike moving).
Try setting the gearbox into 5th by hand then see if you can go down the gears using the gearchange mechanism, its not easy to do it on the bench anyway.

Turns to rock after a while too.
Although it comes off fairly easily.

Sadly, progress has slowed a bit due to some recent job changes at work so the project is now going to be built as a runner hopefully machanicly sound but a bit cosmetically challenged :) :) until I can splash some more cash at it. The gearbox is now shifting through all its gears on the bench..big thanks to all who ve helped :D :D and Ive managed to call in a favour with an engineering mate regarding the crank rebuild. (mates rates, will be done in between jobs 8) ) Have spent a bit of time cleaning the carbs out
