Naw, it was beyond repair. I thought if it was the clutch plate or bearing housing, I could handle it. It came completely apart when the housing cover was removed. Apparently, the previous service check/fluids change, the tech drained the oil and didnt put any back in.

Is the transmission case in good condition?
You could find a used gearset and be up and running pretty easily.
The later model year the better (remember it must be 5 speed model).

217K miles? I think you just "wore it out."
Congrats as this doesn't get accomplished very often!

If the case can be salvaged, then you can put in a gearset, and those can be found on eBay. Good to know the tranny went over 200K and only broke due to human error.
What engine fixes did you have on that bike? Ever split the case?
Would love to reach those miles myself.

Twin cam has nothing to do with it...
`99 model year bikes used a five speed transmission.
All the guts from a `99 five speed transmission will go right in to a `95 Road King transmission case.
