cb 550 3rd gear
davidcumbria:
I recently replaced my 550 gear cluster that is driven by the clutch. Only one of gears was damaged so if you need anything off there it's yours for postage costs only.

The engine is out and it looks like 3rd gear is just not sliding over enough to engage. Compared to 2nd gear it could go another 2mm at least but it just wont. The gears look ok but show evidence of slipping, the dogs are polished as is the gear it engages with.
The fork that moves it fits snug in the groove but looks well worn, do you think thats it? [ Guests cannot view attachments ] [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Just a thought Gary, the selector drum that positions these forks when the gears are selected could also be worn and make a difference. Also the levers that rotate the drum.

Fork looks bent sideways, only supposed to touch on either side of the two pads out at end of fork.
Looks like a half moon witness mark at base of semi circle that's been rubbing where it shouldn't. That will probably account for the error you're seeing in travel.
