gearbox

hello, I took I ride yesterday and sometimes the bike made a noise from the gearbox and was acting like the gear was kicked out. Most of the times this happend when there was poor or no traction, but it happened with full traction a few times. Also, I have problems finding neutral when the motor...

it seems you haven't been telling the truth you lot! you promised me that the close ratio gearbox amounted to no more than dropping in the 6th gears from the old FC470 and that was that! but you lied! when i went to measure up the box today from a 2000 FC501 i ran out of fingers! i...

thanks to all the guys that helped with trying to find out what was wrong with it,but as it turns out its the gearbox engine turns over but the gearbox is locked,i dont have the funds to fix or the knowhow,the bike is a 57plate dcr bike with a tuned 550 motor big piston fully worked head jetted...

My dealer told me that gearbox parts for any pre 1999 engine is unobtainable. No more parts available anywhere. Period. Can this be a fact??

Could any one tell me what the axial clearance should be on the main gearbox shaft as I have finished doing a dry assembly but find that it has 0.05mm max (that’s with the right side bearing as far out as possible) , side to side clearance were as the driven shaft (sprocket) has perhaps...

I ran in a little trouble with the gearbox on my FE 501 production year 2000. I've found a nice one from a FE 501 97 and wonder if it fits 100% in my bike. Regards /Philip @Sweden

Hi Gents The long running saga of my attempt to love my berg continues... Cutting a long story short, I bought and shortly after blew up a '99 400 e-start, I then bought a 99 non e-start 600 and fitted it (eventually after much P***ing about) Wouldn't start, so off it goes to DCR to...

right fellas had to replace all the gearbox bearings and was stumped initially on the output bearing. that to you folks is the one behing the 'front sprocket'. it's a roller bearing in which the inner race can flop out the bearing and leave all the rollers dangling there. having...

:D i've recently had the bike jumping outta gear again and thought nowt of it. as usual it was going to be either the post that sits in the middle of the selector fork that was loose, or the selector 'star' itself. this had happened at hawkedon my last but one race - the centre post...

any of you berg owners ever lose gears? 4th disintegrated on mine yesterday.. waiting for tear down in the shop to see what is needed but it aint good. its spinning and catching on itself when 4th is selected. .. and i just rebuilt it 200 mile ago percentage of downtime on this bike...

Hi All My 2003 FE501e has had a slight shift prob nearly since new. when in 3rd and downshifting, sometimes it drops straight into neutral. tho not a big worry, it has made me crash once when compression sliding in to a corner, hit neutral, and then over shoot corner into a log. The...
