I'm off to talk to Vince Burrell about the gearbox who runs Guzzi Cafe near home. I think he only works on pre V11 Guzzis but worth the visit.
-
Yes it is. I've messaged Doc about it no problem I've just emailed you about gearbox
-
Hi Pete Roper How do I contact you? Your profile is set to not receive personnel messages

Input shaft rotates freely in neutral & 1/4 turn when in gear. Output shaft only moves 3 teeth in any gear. Its differcult to change select gears above 2nd. Conclusion damage is in gearbox. Is it worth taking rear cover of g/b off to see if damage is in there?
-
Got gearbox out yesterday after pulling 1/2 the bike to bits. Will try Petes suggestion of trying to rotate input & output shafts in all gears to determine if gearbox damaged
-
Thanks Doc for that. Didn't realise you needed to tilt motor. Nearly there. Got black frame tubing behind g/b to remove. Only problem so far is 2 of 3 screws holding grimca clutch m/c have seized. Will detach tubing instead

I had driveshaft apart 6 months ago when I greased front grease nipple. I thought I put it back correctly. Will never know for certain now.
-
Thanks I think I'm good

Took some photos of front universal using smart phone & Endoscopy camera. Not that conclusive. Couldn't load other photos. See my gallery. Mission for today - put rear wheel back in to check movement in gearbox - shift bike to better working position in workshop - get back wheel & swingarm out
