I am having problems selecting 1st gear on a heavy weight 4 speed gearbox (attached to a S6) and would appreciate help as to how to take it apart, ideally with the box in-situ on the bike. I have removed the gearbox front cover, bendix style kick start mechanism, removed the 3 retaining screws holding the middle case and loosened the selector shaft gear off its keyway. The middle case is loose to move a little, but will not come off. Do I need to remove the primary and drive chain sprockets or any other items? Once free to open, should I expect it to come out in one bit or 10's of bits dropping on the floor?
many thanks
Ian
