Also the aluminium spacer tube on the layshaft gradually gets "squished" up the layshaft by the slipper tension. The fix is to put a steel shim on the face of the tube, but an according amount has to be removed from the tube first. If a shim has beem fitted without filing the tube down first then the layshaft bearings get pre-loaded.
There is a new layshaft spacer. But this wear occurs after a lot of running.
