[QUOTE="Rednaxs60, post: 220635, member: 4617"] Had some time to investigate the issue with shifting. The issue is only when a shift fork moves a gear into the other such as where countershaft 5th gear is moved over and into the countershaft second gear, or countershaft 4th gear into the countershaft 1st gear. Checked the shift drum support bearing housing. It is approximately 7.1 mm in depth, the bearing is some 7.9 mm. Looked at the pics in the Clymer manual and you can see the bearing just proud of the case. On to the next. Took the shift forks out and made sure there were no burrs or whatever. Had a good look at the countershaft, compared against the manual. All is as it should be. The main transmission shaft is the same. Looked for the shift forks on line. The centre fork is available, the other two are not that I can find in a short search. The centre fork is #2 in this pic:[ATTACH type="full" alt="Shift forks.jpg"]21276._xfImport[/ATTACH] Took numbers 2 and 4 pistons off so I could lower the left case on to try out the shifting. Looks promising, but will do a better trial tomorrow. Cheers [/QUOTE]
