Nah, new as in new to this bike. Good 2nd hand box. You will probably pay more than the bike is worth for a new box.

Don't know. Haven't switched it on yet. Will do so when the new box is in.

🤷‍♀️ No idea, but it must have made a moer of a noise before it failed. Gearbox is history. ½ balls everywhere.

Oops of the week. I was considering repairing it, but then decided just to put it back together and fit a Boosterplug. I have been led to believe they resolve any issue. :ROFLMAO:

Does your mini have one of these braces tying the bottom of the motor to the body? My ex's Mini also had a horrible shudder and was constantly shearing engine mountings. It took me about a year to discover why. I came up behind her in traffic one day, waiting to turn right at a traffic...

You can try, but it will most likely take you a lot longer doing it that way than just removing the entire swingarm. Getting the boot to seat correctly, and then getting the shaft splines aligned with the swingarm in the way is a real bitch. It takes less than ½ an hour to remove the swingarm.

Cigarette lighter. Pick 'n Pay. :LOL:

You can get them on Amazon or from aliexpress. Temu may even have. When you order, order 4 of each. And then also start saving up another R14k for a new driveshaft. I made the mistake of ordering these Chinese variants, also aimed at saving a few bucks. Was a total waste of money. Really...

Oops. Looks like it folded over again.
