Wave Gear box problems



Re the guy who asked about gear box problems. I too owned a 147 51 and found difficulty in selecting 3rd gear. First of all I had it oiled and the links changed. However, I realised that this did not really solve the problem. I asked about having the gearbox changed and a new gearbox was going to cost £3000! I asked about a reconditioned box and it came down to £1800 an an unguarenteed second hand one came down to £1200 with labour included.

I traded it in, but miss my 147 quite a lot!
