Sounds like a reasonable price for a clutch dog and seals...almost a match for what I've paid in the past. Don't know about the forward gear though...never had to price or replace one. Check the insides before you order than expensive F gear...you may not need it.

ok clutch dog needs replacing starting to get a shine to it. bearings in motor excellent. foward gear is questionable whether it needs replacing or not

so im gonna send it to my parts guy he will look over it. i trust him a lot. he has helped me on a lot of items and overall this whole motor. nothing ever goes wrong when i go by what he saids.

so clutch dog 45 dollars 20 dollars seals and 150 dollars on foward gear

i have second thoughts on foward gear ill get a second opinion on it with him.

im gonna need help with the seals guys. never done before.

yup and i check compression and spark. good spark on both cylinders.

compression 130 on top and 125 on bottom probably would have been 130 even if i let the bottom one turn a little more. using electric start. cold. carbs closed throttle at idle
