Some good stuff here. Thanx all!
My Mojo Jacuzzi's condition is something like what Karl wrote about. I
need to get all 3 sprockets, the chain, and the tensioner. I think I'll
go with the aftermarket gears if I can get them for a reasonable price.
Off to Ebay again...

| I believe if the bike is a 74 and the Moto has the chain drive, then the aftermarket gear sets will work. The stock gears will not work though. The gear drive engines had some differences in the front of the block from what I have read. I just put a set of agostini gears on my 75 850T , which basically has the same engine as the 74 Eldo. It even has the tapped bosses on the top of the block for the generator mount. For me the gears were a cheaper way to go. The chain, tensioner, and drive gears were worn out. The teeth on the sprockets were pointed so bad I sliced my finger open on them. The gear set was cheaper then replacing all the chain drive parts. The gear set did make a difference. The throttle response is better and the acceleration is quicker. I just have to get used to the gear whine until they break in.

I thought if the bike originally had a chain, it had the later oil pump and dimensions to take the aftermarket gearset. It's the steel gear setup that has a different oil pump and location, no?
