My 59/60 box can be reluctant to select the next gear and can be stiff to change ,also it will not select Neutral at a stop. The clutch has been treated to new flat plates and lots of fettling so I'm thinking gearchange spring shape, shaft not free due to iffy bearing etc layshaft roller bearing conversion problem ? ,anything else?.

I built the bike about 25 years ago from rusty bits,so no idea how it was before. Its never been a good change ,only bearable. I'm suspicious of the layshaft roller conversion I did back then and the bearing at the front of the box. The clutch has had plenty of attention and seems to free off well and spins true .I'm going in !. Wish me luck.
