Do you mean rotation or silding in and out on the shaft ?
Hi Tony
Just rotating...
I'm thinking a little is normal.
Perhaps if too much gap between gear teeth then could be noisy.

Lets ask Richard-7 , we were just in there and did the new tension spring .
OK will do.
So that would take up slack 'away' from the clutch end of primary?
Think will need One07 tools for that? As once checked no going back from memory.
This bike sounds so much better (mechanical noise) than the new Sport I had though so maybe I'm asking for a lot
Job's a goodun. Thanks for the insight into all the oily bitsGreat photos.
Anybody jump the Falls?
So Tony, what's the verdict on the blueprint/rebuild?
Dave and Richard will you be offering performance work in the future like
Head porting
Big valve work
High compression piston kits
6 spd trannys
FCR carb conversions (just kidding)
etc.
Thanks for posting the exhaust gasket. My ring keeps vibing, sounds like a high pitched rattling chain. I really wrenched down on it to keep it from doing that. Now I know I should just get new crush washer and gasket. I know that's not one of the more technical things featured in this thread but it'll keep me from overtightening.
Wow. Great photos. Can't believe it only took a couple of days. Man, we should all chip in and buy the 5 acres across the street. Start our own Nortons club and ride around the Falls. Hmmm.....I think I can guess who carried the snacks and beverages.
How was the wear on your piston rings and was there any burnt or excess oil build up in the rocker covers?
You don’t have Nikasil though? I thought they changed to Nikasil coating with MKII bikes...Rocker cover inside , clean as a whistle . I had good compression and cylinder bores still had the cross hatch honing lines in them.
