USD ,, I purchased one few years ago complete cheep ,,,, In good shape , I just got lucky , I have 4 montesas,,,  old models ,,, I have a montesa Rickman vr 250 ,, , I rebuilding ,the trans was blown , when I purchased bike ,,,upon,,,, splitting case , gears , needle berings  , we’re not in place ,was a mess , WAS BLOWN ,,, , so,, I found a vr short block in Oregon state  , from a montesa parts dealer on ebay ,    I would sell this shelf 348 ,, I on the other side of the world wash state ,, maby you could advertise wanted 348 short block  you might get lucky.  ,,,,  Well good luck ,,,
