Gearbox Stuck - The last straw?
Oddjob:
I’ll try my best NS. You want to leave the postage until after Xmas Sean, just in case it goes missing in the rush.
SeanFD:
Sure, that's fine.
No rush.

I'm back at it now and about to go and uncover the bike.
Dolomite, did those adjustments you made solve the problem?
If not, have you had any success?

Yes, they seem to have fixed the issue. I just need to try to find some torque specs for the bolts and add a little bit of loctite. I thought I dod them tight enough when putting the engine together, I don't think any toque specs were listed in the Haynes manual.
Going to have a look for the specs and order some oil, oil filter and a new sump gasket.
Your issue seems like a bit of a freak one. I wonder why it bent.
SeanFD:
So what was the issue? I must have missed that post.
My Haynes manual has torque values; in chapter 1 they are just below the specifications. I can send you a pic if you don’t find them.
Here’s a pace from the FSM; Haynes gives more for the engine.
Dolomite_:
Ah, I meant specifically for the bolts behind the clutch basket.
I'll have another looks through but it I dont think they were listed.
