You have to buy the whole transmission as the gears are part of the counter shaft and not separate. You have to do what we all do. Buy a post 73 transmission and hope it is OK.

I'll have to split the cases and check the gears, then look in to replacement gears from Nova racing then I think.Fritz500 wrote:You have to buy the whole transmission as the gears are part of the counter shaft and not separate.

If your bike is one with the 1200cc oil capacity in the trans don't forget to to the gearbox mod to raise the oil level. I just did mine yesterday. I put a replacement transmission in with good looking 4th and 5th gears. Bike should be good for another 60,000 miles.
