Re: double clutching

my sporty does that now and then too ,only in first gear and repeatedly until its shiftd into 2nd. it will burn the tire in 2nd and stand up in 3rd lol. iv had the trany out and apart afew times and adjusted the shifter pawl and clutch many times ( more and less ). and ran it through the gears on the bench . never did figure it out lol i think its a problem with a shift fork or the barrel. please post the fix if you figure it out

Re: double clutching

Exactly! now that makes three people with sportsters with the same inherent problem yet it is a mystery to the H-D dealer. As i mentioned earlier i guess im going to have to take it to H-D and hold my breath. Even though they had no idea what it was they estimated a minimum of $450 to fix. Thanks for your input and I will post the fix asap.

MINE being a XL R 2006

The tranny b-4 06 at least had a easier way to get into the tranny.... NEWER 06 n UP have to pull the engine apart...no longer have the tranny side plate to access the gears... NO IMPROVEMENT THERE... I would of dropped a 6 speed in mine if it was the old style 05 n before...

MAKE sure they are not QUOTING for the NEWER MODEL(engine split).....
Sounds a bit much and I would get a second opinion anyway...

I rather used a QUALIFIED hd mechanic but working in his own shop for a lot LESS $$$$ THEY ARE OUT THERE... ? LOOK
