Presumably, if your frame is numbered later than 2715, you have the
later style 22mm set up (just found this in my 2nd edition v700 spare
parts catalog). This assumes your trans is the original one, of course.

 Todd,

I'll be over in Eau Claire next weekend. If you need some additional
eyeballs holler. Question will be if you have a later 4 spd like Greg's
and mine with the 22mm needle bearing or the earlier bearing.
Maybe have MG send both with both size O rings & 3 oil umbrellas for the
push rod and we'll have a 99% chance of having the right part on hand.
Or swing the clutch arm out of the way and pull out the outer disk and
bearing behind it with some pliers are find out before hand.

Any telltale signs to distringuish between the two 4 speeds? Before I
start ordering
parts I am going to narrow this down. I only ask that those on the
board
to be patient and bear with me, as this is a new experience for me.
Frankly,
I have no idea what I am doing, but have decided if I am going to own
this
type of motorcycle,
I had better start learning.....

Thanks for the offer to come over.......I will give you a call.

Todd (saving for tuition to the school of hard knocks)
