I had to change my pipe to Skyline which is shorter and filed away my 2 speed housing slightly to clear the clutch bell.

Anyone had any experience with the problem I had? Thanks in advance for all advise.
Hi..
I have had both problems. You have to be very careful with your choice of gears and mesh them carefully.
The (also common) pipe problem doesnt help as it tends to tempt you to angle the motor slightly.
I was using the 2607 pipe and had this problem unless the tyres were well under 60mm.
Im now going to try the GRP pipe as Im told it works well with the piccos.
