The SXV version doesn't fit, but there is another version for the MXV.

Thanks Allen- that was the pic I was referring to.

Allen perhaps à newbie question but are the rollerbearings for the crank an improvement?

Sorry, It's been a little nuts around here lately. In addition to the normal rebuild/reseal and tweaking/tuning workload, there's 3 full bike builds going on and I'm bouncing back and forth as the parts arrive. I'm hoping to do the 5 speed conversion this weekend and so I can close up the engine and start putting the bike back together. I'll post pictures as it progresses.

New 5 speed transmission installed today. The old 4 speed on the right for comparison

The gbox on the left looks like that new 5-1/2 speed I've been hearing about

Must have been a special feature on at least two UK models

Just out of curiosity...what's up this thing. It seems to have tanked worse than the swimsuit competition at an obesity clinic....

Speaking of dead threads- what's the go with this build? It's winter here and I spend way to much time indoors on the net. Need more for my XV fix!!
