The odometer reads about 64000 miles, however the real reading could be a bit more, since I've bought the bike second hand. Every 15000 miles (more or less) I had to renew the shifter lever cause the internal splines were worn out. The last time I renewed the lever I noticed that I could move the mainshaft of the transmission about 3 millimeters to the left and the right without feeling any resistance.
I have never worked on a HD transmission before but to me it seems a sign of wear, right?
To solve the problem I ordered a new shifter lever with internal splines from hardened steel. This should solve the problem, but the movement in the mainshaft worries me. Does the transmission need a rebuilt?
