shifting gears
Ihave a 1980 fxsb that has a 103" shovel and rotary top trans. i had the trans repaired last summer and when i put it back in the bike,I found that shifting from first to second it did not hit any detent or stop and the shifter went way to far, the linkage got jammed against the trans case.
Is this problem linkage inside the rotary top, or is the linkage on the side worn or misaligned ? any one know?

Also, the shift clutches(shift dogs as some call them) could also be installed incorrectly.
Those gearboxes are very easy to address.
We used a highly modified version of one to help our 108" AHDRA Modified Class bike, run a ton of 8.90's.

The op is asking about a 4 speed transmission...
The transmissions are completely different.
Off Topic Note: not all twin cam transmissions are the same, there are 5 speed and two versions of the 6 speed. Some 5 speeds have the shift detent on the drum, but some do not.
