2006 Sportster Transmission question
I have a friend with an 06, and he was told a shifter fork is bent. He was told he has to split the cases to have it fixed.
It is stuck in 3rd gear after he dropped it.
My question, for those in the know:
What is involved in pulling the gear set? Is it a day project, or more tying up my lift for a week long ordeal.
He doesn't have a service manual, and I'm not buying one unless I do the work, and I want to know what is involved before committing to do it for him...
Going to ask the same in the Sporty forum.
TIA!!

I have 1959 -2003 and then it jumps to a 2009 Sporty manuals. Not sure what applies. 2003 shift drum come out the side. Appears 2009 requires a split case. Pretty involved. Not something you really want to do in most home garages. Keep your post up. Some real sharp Sporty guys on here. Charlie will chime in shortly. Not sure why dropping it would bend a shift fork. Sure it's not just the shifter ?
