output shaft
JanBros:
I have (probably) a '85 K5 engine, with a nut to lock the sprocket on the output shaft off the transmission.
but it's thread ain't very good anymore. Is the shaft interchangeable with the later versions with the circlips ?
I looked at some partnumbers, and both use the same bearrings, collar between bearring and sprocket and first gear. So I presume it will fit. but all the other 4 gears are different (all the gears that slide over the toothed part off the shaft). So will my gears fit the newer shaft, or do they have different toothing ?
cutting torch:
I have an '87 and a '94, both of which are apart right now. My '87 has the nut, too.
I can check it after work today if you don't find out by then.

Goat:
Not sure if the newer shaft is compatible. I do know 83-87 are the same internal trans parts if that helps at all.

i have found that the 87 shaft has a different part # than 88-94. check bike bandit for part #. iuse them alot. also a m a members get 15% discount.
