Hello All,
Just traded in my '09 Ultra for a 2012 'wing. Nice bike, some ways better, some ways worse, but oh well....
Anyhow, the 'wing seems to shift hard. It almost seems like there is no lube on the gears, but the oil is full and changed about 200 miles ago to 10W40 Honda Syn without Moly. The bike has 1600 miles on it. It needs a VERY firm tug to get it into gear and sometimes it feels like the gears are not meshing immediately. Will this get better as time goes on, or should I have the dealer investigate? Maybe I am used to the Harley, which shifted smoothly and quietly. Like I said, new to this bike, so maybe it's normal....
Thanks, Jeff
