Gearbox/Transmission was created by limp
Hi all
Can anyone help me out please, i asked sometime ago about changing a shaft drive Z1000 engine over to a chain drive which my bro is building (thanks for the info last time) what me bro is after now is a picture of the gear selector mechanism behind the sprocket cover wich would show all the moving parts springs, clips, and anything else that may be there. if i am right would a picture or diagram of a mk2 or an A model be ok
kind regards
Limp

Not a hard change over just make sure you have EVERYTHING from a chain drive motor. Shift drum, springs clips. You can use earlier stuff also in you cases like KZ/Z1, it will work as long as you take everything from one motor for the next.
