hey hey moto monsters

I’m resorting a 78 E. I needed to replace the crank case long story short the kick start ripped off the bike....

So I have a used crank case fresh outa the oven gloss black. I’m swapping the trans out of the old unit into the new one.

I was able to run through the gears before I started pulling everything but count seem to find neutral??? That’s not really my concern at the moment though.

My question is does any one know how to put the (not sure of the correct name) shift drum translator back? It’s on the right hand side of the motor, the shifter ties into it and the shift drum. Here’s a pic but it ain’t the best.
The part I’m confused on is how the 2 little arms are supposed to be positioned upon installing with the little spiny guy (that’s a technical term btw)

I’m going to get a better pic tonight
 
Yeah I have a full set thanks for noticing Mike
I’d post a pic but I don’t want to unwrap it yet it’s still wrapped up and protected from the powder coater

Word so in answer to my own question. I pulled myself outa my mini panic attack and opened one of the many manuals on the bike I have. Genius... I know

So my book spells it out quite clearly here’s a pic for those w/o a book
