Went for a little ride today to visit @ozrider at his workshop..... Anyway when I was leaving I naturally gassed it up the road and being a typically hot Queensland day the road is hot and grippy.
Well just about to change to second gear i felt an abnormal vibration that continued into second gear so I shut it off. Put it in neutral and noticed an abnormal feeling shifter and started it again - sound ok.
On the cautious side i rolled it back down to Ozriders workshop. Tried to start it and the starter felt like it had a whole lot of resistance - Hit the switch a few times and it finally started. put a jack under it and raised the back wheel off the ground and ran it up - could not isolate the problem.
Thank fully Ozrider threw me his keys a said to ride his home....
SO now anxiously waiting to see what i find with ole Brutus and thankfully i have a complete transmission to go straight in with back cut gears already done.
 
Nightmare mate ! Hope it turns out to be not too serious ?
 
OTOH, you got that passel of new gears.......sounds like they might need a home!
 

 
Well sump is off and look what I found - I suspect these bits are from the clutch basket.
Not as bad thankfully
A shout out to @warp9.9 is there a basket upgrade? I have not checked the screens yet
