Beware - transmission output shaft is not 5/8"!

You cannot just slip a standard 5/8" sprocket on the transmission output shaft. This shaft is metric, with a diameter of 16mm, or 0.63", NOT 0.625".

You will need either to turn the shaft down to a smaller diameter on a lathe, or drill out your sprocket to 16mm with a metric drill. This year and last year we turned the shaft down.
