.020 Over
I have a 2006 standard black engine turbo bike and have found second to be a weak spot for me. I grenaded one tranny including oil pumps. I had it fixed at a dealer in PA. When I was working out there. They had it forever and it never has stayed in second even w moderate power since I got it back. They had me so mad when I said it wasn't fixed, they said my problem because of Turbo. I was done working in that area also, so didn't fight it as I should have. I'm thinking could be issues w assembly also because of the gear sensor pin being stuck or peened into the back of the shaft when I got it back, causing neutral light to not work. I had to carefully go around the pin and remove material to free it up.
It has popped out (second only) a few times but mostly I skip or baby second. I don't think I have hurt the new gears, but would need to inspect that for sure. They supposedly put in all updates and I have a box of old gears shims pumps.
I have heard of cryo treating and back cutting gears and have even talked to a couple folks on another forum a couple yrs back. Just wondering if someone offers a standard service for this and if any of those folks would be in the Texas or Iowa Area.
I don't want to do teardown again with out fixing the issue. I have drove around it for long enough. I want second gear back.
Thanks, John
