No def a 500, least it was till trigger rebored it. ;D
The reason the drum bolt is missing is cos it wont change gear with it in :(.
Ive done the walk away and ave acup of tea for now.

Sesman:
Aha. That explains it.Sorry I can’t help with the gear change issues.

I do think that this bike restoration game should be prescribed out of health and historical interest. It’s definitely a tonic. Had the 550 out yesterday for a 30 mile round trip before the rain came and it never fails to make me smile.

Thanks Johnny. Your right should be available on the NHS.

If it won't change gear with it in then there's a problem that needs addressing.

Sesman:
Mmmm. If the guide screw aperture is clear from above, then you have to suspect the guide screw assembly? Is it locking up the change drum solid as you screw it down?
