Thanks, but not sure that answered my question. A shim on either the kickstart shaft or the layshaft will do the same IRT maximizing gear engagement (by pushing the gears in). I'm concerned about pawl engagement, either inside the 1st gear, or in the inner cover. Shimming too much on either the layshaft or the kickstart shaft affects pawl engagement. To maximize pawl engagement on both 1st gear and the innercover, I think i'll split the difference and shim both the layshaft and kickstart shaft
