I recently bought a very well worn XS to while my time away on. After cleaning and stripping it a little I found the housing for a gearbox needle roller bearing was buggered. I was going to find an engineering shop to build up the area and machine the housing but thought better of it as I really wouldn't trust them to do a reasonably job. The machining would have to be spot on or the gearbox shaft will be out causing lots of problems.
Next, I thought I might buy a three in one and do the job myself, I have all the time in the world so I'm not constrained by price or disinterest.
Anybody done a similar job? What are your thoughts.
