[QUOTE="oexing, post: 170943, member: 1493"] When looking at the bushes in the chain wheel I think the design was not perfect from the beginning: Yes, oil is not wanted in the servo clutch, but then, both bushes would like reliable lubrication for minimal friction in there as you like to engage first gear with no offensive sounds . So by design the inner bush gets oil from the gearbox or primary. But then there is the seal - which should be not too tight on shaft - and the outer bush will be crying for oil but must run effectively dry for not oiling the servo clutch - somewhat unfortunate. Best have a multiplate and oiling is allright and wanted. Vic [/QUOTE]
