Only two things I can think of on this. 1 he broke the teeth on the speedo gear shaft. I doubt it is that. 2 he broke the teeth on the clucth its self. Where the input shaft of the transmisson rides on. I have never heard of this before but I guess anything is possiable

Hope this helps

The title of the thread scared me!



Keep the teeth off the shaft.
