Hey all, picked up a new '11 SG with the power pack yesterday, loving it so far, best part is was able to pay off the FatBob beorehand so have both !!
Anyhoo, bout the only thing that stands out to me besides the obvious (needs pipe/s and better sound system) is quite a hard shift from 3-4 going up and 4-3 going down.
Anyone else experience this? I know it will break itself in as the gears take a set but it's noticeably different from the other shifts..
My last 2 HDs shifted hard until they got broken in. At your first oil change have them put in a REAL trans fluid. Do a search & you can get some info. I use Redline shock Proof but there are many other brands. IMO,don't use the HD SYN for the trans.
