Thanks to you and Ash for this little Christmas mini-series on the gearbox, it's been very interesting to get a bit more of a deep dive on a restoration.

You're very welcome, hope it all made sense!

Thank you for a very interesting movie and I look forward to seeing more. I am the owner of WLA type III. Best wishes ! Marcin.

Glad you enjoyed it!

That is one very complicated gearbox. Thanks for sharing.

[@theworkshopuk]

It sure is! Thanks for watching.

I was wondering about Ash and his shop. He is certainly the type of mechanic that someone could feel comfortable about leaving his vintage motorcycle with for overhaul.

[@theworkshopuk]

That's very kind, thank you.

I used to have my layout bench near the work vice and found i did 2 miles a day less exercise! I moved it back to where i had it after i found that out!

The oil in my WLA gearbox has a cloudy grey colour to it. Do you have any idea what it is? Is it worth worrying about?

[@ono147]

"every ones needs books". yes, what books are those covering theses gear boxes?
