[Gear selector rods]

Hi guys rebuild time on my 77 gs750. When installing  the gear selector rods, does it matter where on the selector drum the location pins go? ( arrowwd here in the pic)

or can they locate within the drum location slots anywhere?

Would the same apply to any NOS guides advertised ? 
as in becoming brittle  etc 

[GS 750 cam chain guides]

Advice please on checking the cam chain guide and cam chain tensioner guide on my 77 gs750.

are these prone  to wear ?

what needs to be checked on them to make sure they are ok to put back ? 

thanks all

Has anyone built their GS cylinders crankcases etc in a satin black ?
If so did you have them stove enamelled or sprayed?
If sprayed which one did you use ? I have tried VHT barrel spray in satin but its too gloss 

[GS750 kickstart question]

As the kickstart is pretty much redundant on the 750, has anyone removed the kickstart shaft and has the engine plate welded up ?

Just checking its possible to remove the kickstart shaft mechanism in its entirety from the engine without it causing issues 

thanks 

[GS 750 cam holder question]

Hi guys a question about cam holder covers. These are matched to each cam at production, so what  do you do when  you replace cams? If you have to match then with the new cams  , what clearances are required?

many thanks

Tony just seen that you said 

the bearing doesn't ride on it as its still on the OEM bush/spacer, its just holding the swingarm in line. 
can you clarify ?

How are the bearings put to use with the 15mm pivot ?

I will be taking off the rear footrest hangers .. 

[Gs750 swing arm pivot]

Yes good idea 

thanks Tony , all useful info

[Gs750 swing arm pivot]

Ok! Was wondering actually about possible wear as its aluminium ?

Tony where did you get the reducing sleeves made up? I presume the b12 pivot is the same size as the b6 … 20mm?

[Gs750 swing arm pivot]

Yes for sure! Apparently they are a straight slot in with no need for spacers on the gs750

[Gs750 swing arm pivot]

Ok thanks.. i guess if the b6 swing arm slots straight in the gs750 frame with no need for spacers, then 20 mm od sleeves will be best 

[Gs750 swing arm pivot]

Thanks guys! Can some one recommend where  i can get the 20mm to 15 mm top hat reducers from?
