besides the things you mentioned.if the flywheel looks colored (i.e. faint red,blue,or yellow) have it resurficed. if the fork looks worn replace it.and clean the inside of the bell housing.also check the clutch while its out

p.s. dont drop the trany on anyone or yourself. (it realy hurts)


good luck,
kyle

How hard is it to replace the forks? I only ask because i'll be swapping in a 2nd tranny soon

(Keep in mind I didn't swap in the first one...)

Bushings, lightweight flywheel while your at it, and I put some Militec-1. Its a synthetic based metal conditioner. $29 for a 16oz bottle, but that smooth shifting has never felt so good. You only need to put about 4oz in though. I also used Lucas Synthetic Oil.

To get into the trans takes some doing and a few extra tools. I found it a heck of a lot cheaper (note: easier) to just buy a replacement.
