Up for sale is a genuine factory original Triumph 4-speed transmission layshaft 2nd gear replacement takeoff. Removed directly from a classic 650cc engine powertrain, this is an authentic British-made high-tensile hardened steel internal gearbox component. It features a 26-tooth outer track profile and a precision machined internal splined collar to slide seamlessly along your standard transmission layshaft cluster.
Avoid cheap aftermarket reproduction transmission components that suffer from loose machining tolerances or soft steel heat-treating, which can cause rapid tooth hooking or face pitting under heavy load. This factory original hardened steel gear provides the exact structural tooth profile, pitch, and spacing required to restore crisp shifting mechanics and rock-solid gear lockup inside your transmission casing. It is an essential asset for anyone overhauling a classic dual-carb Bonneville, a single-carb Tiger, or a TR6C Trophy twin, or completing a period-correct custom bobber or chopper rebuild.
