You have to check every tooth of every gear to be sure.)
I'm not seeing any damage to the gears but I won't be able to fully inspect them until I remove them from the case.

Would this be the time to install a 6 speed gearset?

FWIW Baker recommends the DD6 for the 80" EVO.

Just to update this thread, I had a broken shift pawl spring and a damaged countershaft gear. Following Spanners advice, I was able to completely disassemble the trans up to the main shaft without removing the primary or starter. Although, the time spent trying to get that little shift shaft circlip off and back on again, I probably could have removed and reinstalled the primary a couple of times. I installed a Baker anti over shift pawl that has a better designed spring and I found a NOS Harley countershaft gear on Ebay for $20.00. I just need to finish torquing the external bolts down, add fluid and replace the oil tank and exhaust. Thank goodness there was no real damage.
