Frank's 818R build

[Pearldrummer7]

Did a little test lap around the neighborhood before loading it on the trailer. Good thing I did...heard a bang and things stopped working in a hurry.

Went to the track on the bike and came back last night, got to work on the 818 this morning. Pulled the trans...Trans fluid was disgusting and had large metal chunks in it. Suspecting diff based on where the sound is coming from and how awful it feels to rotate the input shaft while in gear. I guess my plan is to send out the transmission to a shop or maybe go to a shop with it to see the diagnosis.

Anyone have suggestions? Besides the inevitable "get a Quaife" comments.

Get a 6 speed

But they're so heavy

Wayne, do you run 6 speed(s) in your 818(s)?
