    Hi all

    Are there any tips or tricks to getting the front drive sprocket cover back on? It has a couple of locating dowels that just don't want to go into their holes in the final drive casing.

    I'm guessing the shifter shaft must be out of true by a couple of mm. I just cannot get the cover on no matter what I try.

    Thanks!

    Got it sorted with the aid of a scissor jack gently lifting the cover into place.
