HONDA TRANSMISSION For servicing of the gearshift linkage, see Section 8. TRANSMISSION DISASSEMBLY Separate the crankcase (Section 11). Remove the dowel pins from the crankcase. Inspect the backlash of each gear. SERVICE LIMIT: Low: 0.24 mm (0.009 in) 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th: 0.18 mm (0.007 in) Remove the mainshaft and countershaft. Remove the output gear case. If the thickness of the gasket is on it, measure it and record that measurement. Replace the gasket with one of the same thickness. If you had to measure the old gasket, replace it with one that is 0.05 mm thicker to compensate for assembly crush (page 13-16). Index the gear case countershaft bearing holder to the output gear case, for ease of reassembly. NOTE: When removing the countershaft, pull the countershaft with remaining gears out of crankcase after removing the Cl, C5, C2, C3 gears, spline washers and bushings in the crankcase.
