mk indyblade gearbox
Hi all,
Loving every minute of my indyblade however it has recently started to pop out of second gear straight into neutral and then difficult to get it back
throught the box into thrid. To do the gear box on these does the engine need to be split? Does anyone have any ideas to whats the possible cause and
cost to fix,
Thanks
Phil

Yes you have to split the case to get to the gearbox (but not if you're just changing the forks).
I did mine nearly 2 years ago ( a few pics here linky dinky ) having never touched
an engine before.
Cost wise it depends what's broken of course, but I replaces 2 gears, plus circlips etc required when splitting the gear shaft. Including
gaskets etc probably cost me about 300 quid in all (and a lot of learning time).
You'll find Ron Ayers site useful for parts microfiche.
I got my gears from Lings Honda, you can order parts online and see cost of all items.
Good luck,
Sy

Happened on mine twice!! Both times with a quickshifter fitted. Ive taken that off and had the 'box done again & been fine since
£300 seems about right for gaskets, oil & new parts. You can virtually get an engine for that price though. The blade lumps are pretty cheap now
