Fast Forward several months:
I took the trans cluster out and than had the trans taken apart for parts evaluation. I than ordered them through Custom Chrome (CC) & drop shipped to a vendor.

• I had an INDY put the cluster together and I installed it into the bike. It did not work and removed it.
• I brought the cluster to an locally respected authorized CC dealer for disassemble and reinstall who also repairs HD's. I received a bill but it did not work properly.
• I brought the bike back in running condition back for the second time and was charged a third time. It did not work properly.
• I brought the bike back in running condition back for the third time and was charged a fourth time. It did not work properly.
• I interviewed every CC authorized dealers from the list provided by CC from Miami to West Palm Beach who does repairs and found them to be either incompetent to flat out lairs. Had one moron who told and drew what machining he was going to do to rectify the problem. Only thing was he does not know what the hell he was talking about as it was imposable to do it. If you are going to lie, at least know what you are talking about

Now it is serious and I came to the conclusion I needed to spend my time to fix it myself. I just do not have the time to do it myself so I will not take in jobs until it is done. Through my connections I was able to finally get through to the head technician of CC Heck Huckibee and asked for the technical assembly drawing not available to end users.

I received the manual and proceeded to take detailed pictures of each gear. I e-Mailed it to Huck at his personal e-Mail for evaluation. I did this twice and received no response. If you are an end user do not expect even this aforementioned amount of support.

I carefully examined every gear under magnification and replaced what was needed to be replaced & restored it back to new. I than re-assembled the trans correctly (dry run at least 6 times so I can do it in my sleep) and put it in the bike. Every person I brought it to assembled the trans differently than the manual which I followed exactly.

For the first time my bike does not drip a drop of oil and works correctly in every gear.

Summery:

1. If you purchase a RevTech product, you will be supported until the very last day of your guarantee, not one day after that! There is no support. Learn to do it yourself and never rely on anyone.
2. I started off at with a certified Harley mechanic than brought it to one of the oldest and best reparation INDY in my area. Five invoices totaling well over $1,000 and the trans did not work properly.
3. I learned how to fix a RevTech trans myself. The product now runs flawlessly. I have and have never had absolutely no noise issues as someone here has mentioned. I use this bike as a high speed cruiser for long distances. I changed the final to 0.86:1. I am running a 24T~ 37T (Sportsman Bandit clutch) than a 34T ~ 66T final. At 90 MPH I am running somewhere around 3K all day and night. I usually run 85MPS, 10 MPH over the speed limit at somewhere around 2.7~2.8 RPM's. The bike accelerates quickly but 6 gear should only be used above 67 MPH due to lugging.
4. The trans shifts effortlessly and just works like it should. In a quick search on e-Bay you can get a gear set for $629.95 which will slip into your trans case using your trap door.
