Mine is new, 3 months old, run once or sometimes twice a week. Rebuilt transmission twice now, the first time was a stripdown to service an over tightened diff, after a rear wheel bearing collapse. the second time, this week, after running four race meetings since the last rebuild.

I'll photograph the wear to the idler.
