I recently came in and bought a motorcycle 1980 motorcycle Harley with a smooth transmission in a 5-speed internals this is helping me a lot thank you

I’ve been looking at a ton of Harley transmission videos. This is the best by far. I’m just a weekend mechanic and material this good is invaluable. Great work!

ditto,bro.

Sure am glad for that jolt of distorted guitar to keep my attention.

Suddenly, after that guitar riff, I found I had grown a mullet. Great video. Thanks for putting it up.

Invaluable, I just pulled primaries to replace shift shaft lever and found that the male spline on the end of the shift pawl shaft are woen off. Thank you!

This is one of the best and most detailed videos. I have a RSD 6 speed and needed to adjust the shifter pawl. This was detailed and left nothing for the imagination. Thank you!

Thank you very much for the info , so valuable ! This reminds me of the days gone by when people would help you not thinking of money first, we should be here to help each other.

I bought this video set of 5 VHS tape about 13 years ago. They cover anything from Shovehead to Evolution total tear down from crank up, and transmission 4 and 5 speed. Great videos. I also bought a CD called "Chopper Assembly Videos" (evo softail), another great video. Did the assembly 12 years ago using these videos and never had a problem with my bike, 30,000 thousand miles later.

Any thoughts on the easiest way to get the main shaft disassembled so I can drive it slightly through the transmission to get room to remove a 'walked' IPB race?

Very good and clear video....except that you have to put up with incorrect nomenclature here and there. Example...Not even 2 and a half minutes in he is calling the shift drum pillow blocks pillar blocks. He does it several times in the same paragraph, so it is not just a one off slip of the tongue. At 11:40 he calls the Nylox nuts Nylex several times. This slick voiced radio DJ style narrator does not know about what he is reading, obviously. Very good video otherwise.

Once you put pressure on the inner portion of the bearing by striking the main shaft toward the primary side. Renders the bearing useless. Might as well rebuild while there if it has higher milage.

Thanks for this step by step detailed instructions. The best video I've found. It has enabled me to rebuild my transmission. I wouldn't have stood a chance using the workshop manual or the Haines book of lies.

Fine!

☆VERY IMPORTANT☆ 51:00 PER THE MANUAL, ENSURE THAT YOUR TRANSMISSION IS ENGAGED INTO 3RD GEAR PRIOR TO ADJUSTING THE SHIFT PAWL ON THE DRUM!!! (NO MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO). ADDITIONALLY, DO NOT BEAT ON ANYTHING WITH A HAMMER AND WOOD, ALWAYS EMPLOY PROPER PRESSING TECHNIQUES VIA ALL THREAD MATERIAL AND PLATES.

@luckyPiston it's critical for accurate shifting because it's in the middle of the gear cluster. If you had a 12 speed you'd want to do this in 6th gear. Hypothetical scenario but it's essential for even shifting through your gearset

Shift transmission to 3rd gear and go to 51:00 of this video. Piece of cake

Were is a video like this for the six speed ?

do you have anything for a 6 speed rebuild

My gears won't select 4th or 5th gears,I have the top cover off and the shifter pawl disconnected but when I turn the selector by hand it won't turn past 3rd gear,this is after replacing the inner primary bearing which jammed up as I was riding the bikes and the mainshaft seized up,I can't see any damaged gears inside the gearbox,any suggestions what might be wrong, bent shaft maybe?

What did you find out in the next 4 years ? my guess would be you had a bent shift arm ?

Itd be cool for I didn't put the whole transmission back together before testing the gears and hooking up the clutch

Shifter drum etc

they left out the counter shaft closed needle bearing install into the transmission case. Is it Press in when the case is hot or room temp . 17:22- 21:18

Good video but no video substitutes for your FACTORY service manual AND FACTORY PARTS CATALOG whose exploded views help understand the task (and of course help order parts online which is easy as searching the part number). Have the books open while watching the video if you've not done one of these before. You'll thank me later.

Motor?? All I see is a transmission. What voltage does it operate on??

I think I'll pay someone to do this....

My God that looks very complicated

We don't need the music in between 1st gear and 5th gear

Total hacks! Never hammer the main drive gear out. Make or purchase the special tool used to pull it straight out. Just my 2 cents …

They need to take out that annoying guitar sound between every two minutes it's very annoying so annoying that I'm going to turn it off I don't even want to watch it
