Transmission Fun The One Thing I Hate

It's dust the camera picked up on the valves, they are flawless.

Ti+DLC is what your seeing.
 
The trans on the Rocket sucks. Period.
Shifts like crap.

I removed the linkage and mounted a Honda 250 something or other lever directly on the shaft and it shifts much better.
I learned that little trick here ;-)
HEY both my Rockets shift great with the 2012 Roadster shifting amazingly light im impressed with the clutch and trans on both bikes much better than the other cruisers Ive owned and tested SO dont know whats up with your bike

Your rockets are charmed, obviously.
My trans is a meatgrinder.
