  • Transmission Wanted

    The Previous Owner had done the second gear fix, but it's skipping again. I have no idea if there is enough "meat" there to redo the fix but I don't want to take that chance with a disassembled gearbox on repair day. Also, there are problems with the bike getting stuck in a second-neutral downshift which may-or-may-not be related.
    SO.. I want to cover all the bases before I go in there.
    I need all the gears and the shafts, including the shift drum and forks.
    Ideally from a low mileage 1979 Special, but I believe the parts are interchangeable thru' the years.
    Let me know what you have, and how much via PM. If there are problems swapping parts between the years, I would appreciate a heads-up..


    Thanks,

    Gareth.

    As far as the transmission is concerned, every 1100 is identical. So you can get the transmission from anything from a 78 Standard to an XJ1100 and it will work just fine.
    Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

    When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.
