Finally! The last pieces were order today.
Randy got in the undercut transmission today, so I got ahead and order one, plus a new clutch slave.

All I got to now is to wait for my mechanic to get home from vacation.

As promised, here's some photos of the recent parts I received from Randy!
The parts look amazing, and I can't wait to get the bike put together.

Grab a bear and start drewling over the few photos of RPM's magnificent parts!!
Thanks Randy, for shipping them so fast. From what I understood the transmission went in the door on Friday, just to be repacked and shipped right out again just few hours later  :good2: :good2:

Here's the new slave cylinder.. It will guarantee a perfect result compared to the risk of new leaks with rebuilding the old one. I'm not saying the old one would be any worse then the new one (yes I am  :rofl: )


A few pictures of the undercut transmission. The transmission I would say is in pristine condition.

Oooo yes :good2:
After waiting almost 2 month soon to get this rebuild ready, I'm gonna drive as long as the riding season allows me to before the snow and ice gets here  :bye2:

Update!

Last part came in today from Randy. Bikes probably gonna be reassembled by the end of the week, hopefully.

I am to busy at work to be able to take photos of the process, but I will try to get some if I can.
I will how ever upload some photos when it's done, and maybe some video on Youtube of riding and putting the "new engine" and transmission to the test.

Cheers

Okey, the bike is finally done!! I picked up last night and drowe it home... And my god! What a bike!!

The sound, the feel and response from the engine is Perfect!
It has certainly been worth the wait. The bike has been finished some time, but I haven't had the opportunity to pick it up until last night. Unfortunately I have not had the opportunity to take fj porn pictures during the reassembly, but i will perhaps but out a youtube video instead.

Randy! The gearbox is outstanding!! The best investment i ever made. Thanks.

Cheers
