Bought a 2001 gearbox off Ebay

After having my second flywheel explode with the ring gear blending my gearbox- I have bought a used one from a 2001 on Ebay

 

 

Can someone tell me if this gearbox needs or has had the recall work done ?

 

Vin no ZGUKRAKR41M113599

 

Cheers

It looks like it falls in the effected ZGUKRAKR8YM111929 - ZGUKRAKR11M114435 recall range. The actual recall notice is in the fileshare section of this site.

The previous owner doesnt know if the work was done or not (mutilple owners). Is there a register in the U.S to see if the work has already been done ?

My local dealer was able to check online, but it involved a lot of swearing.

My brother in law just sold his green frame spiny low mileage trans for $100 US on ebay, he got more for his foot pegs than a perfect transmision.... ebay is fickle. If it was his transmission, it was sorted and had a bit less than 14k miles on it

That's the one John. By sorted i assume you mean it had the suspect parts replaced ?

Yeah he bought it from a collector in San Diego that as I recall sorted all the bits, I rode it frequently, perfect transmission... You stole that sucker for $100, when I heard that I told him to call me before he give stuff away.... :rolleyes:
