Is your gearbox a rear shifter? Just got mine shifting really nicely.
Besides replacing all the bushings, check the metal parts also. My lock out plate was really worn as were metal parts of the shift linkage. The lock out plate is available new but the linkage is no longer available but it is repairable. George Hussey's book 700 914 tips has a picture of the linkage wear points. |
