Gearbox Rebuild Completed

Good morning 

I have just had a phone call from Doepie to say that he has finished the rebuild of the gearbox .
The gearbox rebuild involved the replacement of the bushes, bearings, all the seals, the clutch springs, the final drive sprocket with seal, etc. The casing has been bead blasted and some of the parts were repainted. 

The parts that were repainted were done in matt black or the matt desert khaki - as it came out of the factory (according to Bruce Palmer and his book 'How to Restore Your Harley-Davidson')
I will pick up the gearbox this morning and post some pictures of it. 

The Completed Gearbox - the backing plate of the primary cover is just turned around and should face the other way
