Also, I noticed on some new 710's today (I bought mine from the first shipment) a couple of differences.
First, the new flywheels were black, while mine is the "hardened" color. Also, the first gears on the clutch bells were brown (instead of black like mine), and did NOT include the thin silver shim, or the supplemental sheet containing the details of the shim. What's the deal with these changes?
I noticed from the LHS that some 1st gear pinions (18T) were chocolate bronze brown in colour. Almost looked too tempting to be eaten !
Anyway from what I've heard, the silver shim is not needed anymore as it has already been integrated in the 1st gear pinion. I have not changed my pinions yet (still lasting) so I have no idea if that is true or not.
As for the black flywheels, don't know. But it sure looks cool though.
