In 45 years of owning and running 6 Norton singles I have never found the need for a clutch extactor but you will need a sprocket extractor. Will be in my garage later today and will measure the two gear box's. John

The ES" box marked 'G102' is 3 1/2 inch wide with a kick start shaft length of approx 2 3/8 inch. John

Hi George. My sprocket remover is a two leg type inherited from my dad, a life long motorcyclist, so is older than me! I have found once the clutch holding nut is remover the whole assembly just slides off the spline. As for running the twin gear box, no problem other than he kick start fouling the silencer. In fact now I have changed it over to the correct box I find it not as precise as the twin one which was no doubt why it was substituted in the first place. It had been attached to a side car for some of its life therefore the gear box would get plenty of use. John

Hi George. Will do this tomorrow morning but which width are you referring too? If its the top fixing width it's the same for both gearboxes. John
