I found one on eBay in the US. They appear to have used the same shaft right up to 1990 XR600. Plus XL. Got to love the net.

Anyone??? I need a gear selector shaft. The butcher that once worked on it welded the gear lever on. Shaft is stuffed. Plus they must have not had any metric tools. Got to love burred up bolts.

I would only buy one if it had a carton of croissants with it.

As I said I am a 2 stroke novice. It had a new piston and rings about 5 hours ago. I was hooking up the road and dropped it back a gear and it just stopped firing. Didn’t lock up. It wasn’t till the barrel came off that you could see the damage. I thought it had put a hole in the piston, hence loss of compression.
So guess it was running too lean.

Hey Gibbit was Nugget the bloke who owned the 4WD truck with the canvas canopy? I think I sat with your group at presentation and camped next to you both nights if it was.
I started day two in 62nd position. Was having a better run on the way back until I got the flat.
It’s normally a lot smoother on the first day. Those transponders caused heaps of trouble.
They cut a lot of the cool gilguy stuff out at the Tottenham end sadly. We got to ride a small part of it.

Was a more open track this year. Faster. I managed 81st which was a lot further back than last year. I got a flat on day two about 40km from the end. Stopped and fixed it while my wife and kids and brother in law watched on not realising it was me. Lost a lot of places there.

Washed and polished my old WB ute and put a different set of wheels on it.
