THE REBIRTH OF NUMBER 74

Hello, I am rolling along at the same pace as Sonny in regards to sending my 2006 Rocket III standard (10.5K miles)Transmission to Robinson Industries to evaluate and upgrade Trans components and installing the Upgrade kit purchased at Hermy’s Triumph. The upgrade kit is obviously important based on combing the forum for common issues. Currently I have the Engine out of the bike . I want to keep the bike for a while and I have concerns about slipping out of second gear as well as troubles getting into second gear at High revs. Also, at times it feels as if I loose the gear engagement while riding hard. No grinding but a sensation of a momentary gear loss. Hard to explain . Maybe I’m spinning the tires and then tire gains traction? Don’t know.
I’m not sure of exactly sure of what I should send to Robinson . I have read about splitting the cases but not sure if I need to. I‘m reluctant to start tearing into the engine more then I have to to install the upgrade components.
BTW: Happy Anniversary Sonny!

Feels like a " skip", right? I had the same thing, second gear,too. Dogs in transmission are worn, and they're disengaging, then catching again. Robinson can back cut them, I almost can guarantee that is the issue.

Sonny, when are you going to stop dicking around?

somny, when are you going to stop dicking around and remove that engine! @mr hunt removes his every two weeks! Rebuilds it and reinstalls it by the end of the weekend! Waiting patiently,
JAG!

Man i am working on it. Back is broken and Knees are shot. Limited to weekends due to working overtime at work. That and physical therapy four times a week is not helping. When I say am messed up is a understatement. Taking over 18 hundred milligrams daily of nerve pills along with pain killers and some kind of pills to keep my knees from swelling up. Doing the best i can.
