Yes it is. 20 years a bit late to claim on it? Any idea if I can find out if it's been done?
-
Good point about the screws. I wonder if they are Guzzi specfic or are available from any good fastners supplier
-
No not yet. One step at a time. Picked up locking tool last night. So planning on opening up clutch tonight
-
Before I decide what I'm doing with the gearbox I want to see what condition the Clutch/plate & Flywheel are in. The workshop manual says to remove the alternator first. Any idea why you need to do this? I've borrowed Locking Tool A and with a RAM clutch being 1 piece you don't need Tool B

Why don't you need a clutch plate alignment tool if you have a RAM single plate unit?

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'm about to start removing the gearbox. Anything special I need to watch out for?
-

Swing arm out Front universal joint out Unfortunatley it looks and rotates fine Next step secure bike so it won't fall over (It's on stand that it was on during Christchurch earthquakes so I'm just being careful) Then tomorrow remove gearbox

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
