Found One on Ebay, might get it. A freind of mine has had good luck at Greens Motorcycle Salvage in Milwood KY, (SW of Louisville) probably ckeck them out Monday. As I will be in the area anyway.

I was trying to reinstall engine by myself. so I am going to remove rear wheel and drive shaft assy, then stab drive shaft into transmission rather try to allign the heavy engine onto the drive shaft. don't know if it work but sounds easier.

The drive shaft slides back into the swingarm, and will clear the engine output shaft. Once everything's bolted up, slip it onto the shaft and fight that snap ring! You shouldn't need to remove the rear wheel/final drive/swingarm/drive shaft/brake calpier... Unless you just want to?!?!

Got one on the shelf you can have for shipping from Ohio if you need. As posted above, don't really need to take all that stuff off, go slow and easy, it will go.

hmmmm yes ...putting motor in is no problem in line up ...in my 1200 build in a 1000 the driveshaft is in the way sort of to the point that it will not go on but I all I needed to do is loosen finam drive and pull it back a 1/4" and it slip on ...your concerns are not there it easy and no problem at all on stock set up ...and not much problem when it is a problem like in the 1200 mod bike
