Hahaha Indexing can be a bitch! I just reindexed mine this weekend and I am very happy with the way it functions now. I can explain on how to index but I would be typing here for a long time and I have to pack to hit the road tomorrow for work. If you want to call me I could probably explain it easily. PM me if you wish.

Ok here is a real fast low down on indexing: Set the camplate to 4th gear position. This is with the top of the cam plate pointing directly to the back of the gearbox case. In this position the cam plates ears will be in the 12 and 6 oclock positions. It is very important that you ensure the cam plate stays in this position while you reassemble the inner cover. Your trans uses the plunger on the camplate instead of the leaf spring so you should be ok. THEN as you slide the inner cover into position ensure the quadrant is all the way up, this is 4th gear position on the quadrant that will give you all your gears once you are done. To make sure you have all your gears once the inner cover is on just uses a big screw driver to move the quadrant through the gears as you rotate the rear wheel. You should feel all gears and it should not pop out of any gear when you turn the rear tire back and forth. The manual is real screwy with the picture of the quadrant position when you are installing the inner cover, if you do it in the position that the manual shows you probably wont have 4th gear. Good luck, its not hard just takes a few trys. You can do it! I am out of town for the remainder of the week but will be checking my email and the forum as time allows.

well what da ya know finally after cutting my fingers a little here and there with the trannie gears, i finally got my triumper to get all four , and i just got back from my first trip off the block . went to my brothers crib about 5 miles from mine.
it went well didnt have lights or break lite, but u know how it goes. at lease i did have reg. and insur. got back maybe 1/2 hr after dark will hook the lights up tommarow.

still lots of tweekn to do but a guess all work and snaps put out was worth it , i came real close to cutting it loose and selling , glad i didnt. o the power them 650 cc put out was surprizing , now if i can just reamber to break with my left foot it will be all good.
i guess the vibration is normal right? ...............thing i need a belt but wtf
