Gearbox on G80CS 1961

Post by martinco5 »

I have removed the gearbox outer cover to replace the oil seal on the kickstart shaft. So far so good. Lots of gunge inside that cover which I have now cleaned out. I’m assuming there will be a similar amount of gunge/crud inside the gearbox. I’m not keen to remove the gearbox from the bike so does anyone know a product I can use to clean the gearbox? Or do I ignore the gunge in the gearbox because if I hadn’t needed to change the oil seal I would have known nothing about it!!

Thanks in advance

Martin
