    UPDATE 6-30-15

    Nothing special today, checked the internals to make sure there was no surface rust forming (paranoid I know) and my gauge cluster and surrounding plastic came in the mail today perfect! I got the entire thing for $59 shipped. Cannot complain. I will post pictures another day.

    I am not sure if anyone is actually following this or if I am writing to myself but feel free to chime in with suggestions. I am sure once I get the body work going more people maybe interested

      You can see how many peeps have viewed a thread. Generally many follow, few comment. We all love bike porn though so keep the pics coming!

              UPDATE: 7-4-15 (happy 4th of july everyone)

              Well I pulled the crank case apart today and found the problem I already knew I had.

              The one gear a had broken and then the busted part ground down the other gear (not sure on the names of said gears) so I will have to replace 2 gears.

              Have not decided if I am going to replace the entire tranny.. thinking about it though! My only fear is not knowing what I have with the "new" tranny and I know whats wrong with this one.

              All other gears, seals, bearings, and forks look fine. Everything else in the engine is fine as well. Case came apart relatively easy(plastic hammer around the edges) and now I will just make the choice to buy an entire new one and wait for gaskets and such.

                UPDATE: 7-8-15

                I ordered a complete transmission on eBay for $55 shipped! Came with all gears, forks, drums, shift rod(idk the name) and everything down to the nuts holding the sprocket on. I got it in 2 days flat with free shipping.

                Looks flawless and I am excited to get it in there. I will most likely not doing anything for about a week because I am going on vacation starting Saturday (7-11-15). I am going to order my gasket kit and should have the motor all put together about a week after my vacation! (pending shipping times for the gasket kit).

                Pretty excited.

                Then its on to the frame work!

                    Yeah I was very excited! Most others were more than double just for the gears. Not that I need much else but spare parts are always good and I can probably sell the rest and make more than my money back on eBay. Unless any members here need the parts then I will sell the extras cheap/at shipping cost.

                    I will make a parts for sale thread if I am allowed too. I think I need to have 50 posts first? I will look into it because I am sure I will have a bunch of extra stuff left over when I am done. I always do with projects like this lol. I love to help members on sites rather than just make a few extra bucks on eBay.

                        Hey I would hope people can help me with things I ask for so why not do the same. BTW I subscribed to my own thread so I can respond faster :P

                        Plus I wouldn't work in law enforcement if I didn't want to help people haha.

                        I did look and I need 50 posts to place a parts for sale ad so once I hit 50 I will place it up there and continue to update it like this thread for parts I have for sale/free + shipping. I will list pictures and such as well. I have my own server so image hosting won't leave us with blank spots where pictures should be :P

                            LOL, well I am sure I will hit 50 posts quick as I am at 43 now. I am not too concerned. Once I get into a project like this its a daily obsession (ask the GF... she hates it) and I am online all the time looking at the next thing. You should see my eBay watch list.... I will be broke in no time! :P
