what's worst is this my only ever "nice" bike i've wanted to keep, quiet literally everything else has had either duck tape or household magnolia brush painted rolling wrecks. I think we have the selector drum in 180 degrees out, gotta split it again and find out why it won't shift gears now, but would before we closed it up.
If I can offer any advice, it may help to shift the bike's gears up and down while also spinning the output shaft by hand, do that a few times before you torque wrench the cases together. That's saved my bacon every time there was a misalignment.
Good luck, sorry about the fairing.
