       gear box blues

       I am rebuilding the gear box again.  After first engine gearbox
       rebuild, I did not have 3rd gear.  Although it worked on the
       bench and 3rd could be selected, when on the road under load 3rd
       cannot be selected. So the engine came out and I found that the
       dog gear did not ful mesh with the 3rd cog.  So I made some
       shims and put it all back together, presto 3rd gear was there,
       then I started to get an intermittent rattle in 4th.  So its
       back to the bench and engine out again. Trouble is the 2nd gear
       dog is intemittently catching the 1st cog when in 4th.  I am
       thinking of moving shims around, but I wonder if anyone has the
       correct tolerances as so far I have only been able to do this
       blind by trial and error, it seems more error then anything
       else!
       I am taking the opportunity to also sort out the chain adjuster
       which has been bugging me.
       regards

       There's an article on GuzziTref that another member managed to
       get translated, but I've not been able to upload it to our
       resource yet.
       E-mail sent to Tony with file.
       Here's the link to the article.

       Re no gears, might be an idea to try the adjustment before
       breaking in there.
       If you go to the links section, there's a link to a Box account
       that includes Workshop Manual an Rider's Handbook. The
       Handbook's in English, and shows how to adjust the gear
       selector.
       The WM (Italian) hows how to dismantle the gearbox.

       there are no correct tolerances
       shimming the gearbox is just shifting and adding shims until the
       clearance between all the cogs is the same.
       make sure to the widths of the shafts  are well shimmed in the
       gearbox , if the whole shaft can shift from side to side your
       carefully selected shims are not going to help much.
       just take your time until you are 100% happy.
       last time i spent a evening on this job
