M199B Gearbox

I've recently acquired a 199B sherpa t that has some gear box issues. Namely the shift forks are horribly modified, and butchered. I think I saw on this forum at one point that someone had an exploded diagram with hand written part numbers on it for the shift forks. The diagram itself was likely that of a 214 frontera which physically has the same gear box but with different ratios. So if anyone could post the diagram I'd appreciate it. I won't even comment on how rare six speed shift forks are and how difficult it may be to source some. Worst comes to worst I have a 5 speed cluster from another sherpa that I can likely make work. For those curious the serial number is 14446

Thanks in advance

BellaVista in Spain may have them. I needed a final drive sleeve gear for my 340 Sherpa which is different from the 5 speed sleeve gear, and was able to get one from them, through In Motion Bultaco UK

We sent the old one to them so that they could match it up as there is no parts diagram or part numbers for the 340. Worth keeping in mind if you can't find part numbers.

I think to make a 5 speed box fit the B cases, the layshaft bearing housings may need boring out to take the different bearings as the 6 speed uses small diameter needle rollers. You might also need to use the 5 speed selector pawl mechanism as I tried a 5 speed one in my 6 speed and it doesn't work due to it being machined differently on the inside where it engages with the drum

Probably easier to just use 5 speed cases

Hi guys thanks. I've emailed in motion to see if they have any parts or suggestions. Woody you're right about the needle bearings. If I have to go to the 5 speed I'll find a set of 350 cases from an earlier sherpa t The 340 barrel and crank will fit into the earlier cases.
