  1. I also suspect gearbox oil leak (cracked box?) looking at the exhaust colour where the exhaust passes under the box.. Look at the 2004 model with 8000miles @ 4300$.....a much better deal IMHO
  2. This one seems like a bargain.....If I had not my greenie already I would jump on this one. Very clean. 11000Km is like new and has a nice corbin seat.ONLY 4300USD!!!!!! https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/550049916501981/?ref=search&referral_code=marketplace_search&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3Aa63d39d0-84ed-4117-99d8-2e9877778d50
  3. Hey Phil, it's always a gamble buying second hand but I think I don't have anything to loose buying this gearbox for 250$. If the housing and the inside gremlins are good I am golden....if the inside is crap but the housing is good I am silver plated, I'll use my gearbox internals.....and in the worst case scenario I am getting a bad gearbox with a crack too small for the naked eye to see (much better than my crack). That will allow me to empty it, have it welded up while I still drive my leaking glued together gearbox and at the end of the season I can swap things over and most probably have a bag full of spare parts Does this make sense or am I going bonkers? P.s I most certainly will dye check the gearbox.
  4. I don't know at this time...maybe a bad bearing? I just am thrilled to get a non cracked case with lots of spares to boot for less money that I would have to pay a good welder. I will replace all the seals and look inside when I get the gearbox:)
  5. YAHOOO, bought the gearbox, no cracks and is supposed to be a low miles working gearbox:) Thanks to all of you , L.
  6. It looks to me that it was pressure washed and the residual grime is concentrated around the RH lug. I found a few reports of RH lugs being cracked....Still waiting for the seller to feedback.
  7. Thanks Docc, that will help me searching with the correct keywords
  8. And this one would be great but it looks like it is also cracked on the RH mounting lug... https://www.ebay.ca/itm/144447202157 All the others are at least 1000$....
  9. was it this one.......it is NOT a V11 gearbox https://www.ebay.com/itm/363361461458?hash=item549a07e4d2:g:eigAAOSwuWVgeQ2c
  10. Ok here the follow up. I took my courage (I am new at TIG welding) in hands and built a bracket which I welded to the frame. Then installed the bracket I got from Motivcycle works. As an experiment and to give me more time to find another gearbox /solution I have JB fixed the crack really cleaning it well beforehand. I will feedback and let you know if it is going to leak again....or not:). Also I made a spacer for the gearbox mount, it fits between the lugs and prevents any tension when tightening the bolt P.s tried to buy a new housing and no one sells them anymore. Now it's either welding or getting a good second hand box. Here some pictures https://1drv.ms/f/s!AvMw5i-09AkLwAf796UfANGWc3b_
  11. I tried to contact Magni 3x and have had no luck. I doubt they still do business. I would love to find a Magni fairing.....anyone?? L.
  12. This one will not last. Not my bike, saw it for sale and thought one of you might want to pick it up https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/5103045976386162/?ref=search&referral_code=marketplace_search&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3A9c87a906-aace-4b0a-bb63-9eef57ebe096
