That was suggested to me by Terry Prince also. I am the sort of guy who likes to "fix" things. Several reasons for this; I am semi retired (closer to retired than semi) and so cost, while not cheap, will be less than in 5 years, also, the peace of mind it gives knowing I will not be depending on a bodge. I think it will also be a good opportunity to check over the whole engine while it is apart. Terry said he actually did this fix many years ago on his bike and it lasted until he turned his road bike into a racer. I contend that Terry's skills are on another planet compared to mine when it comes to VincentsSurely you can strip gearbox and clean the inside enough to put some kind of sealer over the joint in an effort to see if the fatefull day can be put off a few more years.
