[Cant Get The Front Axle Out To Replace The Bearings]

Hi guys, I had the same problem with my spindle when attempting to change the wheel bearings

It was rusted solid to the wheel bearings and required a bit of gentle persuasion with a hammer and punch. Once cleaned and lubed it was fine.

ATF for me. It's the only oil that eliminates clutch drag. Used it for 4 years without any issues.

At last, bike back from sgs with the gearbox in and working. I had her out all day yesterday and she is amazing.

Still unsure what was wrong but I know they've removed the outer washer from the selector drum as well as a problem with selectors.

I find it hard to believe that a precision piece of equipment can vary from bike to bike, some bikes have washers and some don't?

Anyway it's fixed so I'll just enjoy it while I can.

Can't thank Ian at sgs and Duncan for their help, knowledge and effort taken to get things back to me.

Hi Mark,

The change has spring feeling until bolts are tightened. The reason for it to be in gear is to keep the spring at the bottom of the shift drum in place as its seemingly a pig to put back if it pops out. When out the box is free and selects fine.

It's like the gears ate not far enough on shaft stopping the shaft from coming through the hole.

Just wondering before having to send it all back.

Just got box back from dealer.

When I tighten it fully with the five bolts it jams up. There is no spring return in the shift.

Also the sprocket shaft does not seem to be through far enough to get the circlip on. It doesn't make sense as everything else looks ok.

I must be missing something but just can't see.

Any ideas??

Thanks guys, it was the clutch fixer nut.

I'm so glad I didn't keep hitting it with the hammer.

Found out where the tooth that was stuck to my drain magnet came from.

Hi, hopefully someone can help.

My 2012 factory gearbox has just decided to lock up. After following the instructions I can find on the net I've removed the 5 bolts, sprocket and gear lever but it still feels solid when tapping the shaft. I don't want to tap harder in case there's something I'm missing.

Any ideas.
