TRANSMISSION

Figure 6-25.

The transmission is a ﬁve-speed constant-

mesh type housed in an extension of the crankcase. The

transmission permits the rider to vary the ratio of engine

speed-to-rear driving wheel speed in order to meet the vary-

ing conditions of operation.

Figure 6-26.

The transmission is foot-operated by the

gear shift lever, which transmits the force through a gear

shifter shaft. The shifter shaft actuates a pawl and a shifter

fork drum. The shifter fork drum moves shifter forks, which

slide a series of shifter clutch gears, on the mainshaft and

countershaft, into and out of mesh with the other gears.

Drain transmission and reﬁll to correct level with fresh, clean

lubricant at least once each year or every 5000 miles (8000

km), whichever comes ﬁrst. For best results, drain lubricant

for more information.
