Appears to be in good condition and I feel it is most likely fairly fresh. Came to me recently as an incomplete basket case, ngine turns over, ransmission shifts through gears and has nice tin primary cover. Now, I do see people bashing these and comparing to Baker 6 speed, But I am sorry when was the last time any of us working class folks have had $3k to throw at a transmission? Hell you can build a motor for that much.and don't forget the other things in life you have to save that money for.1967 Harley-Davidson XLCH Sportster engine / transmission with paperwork. I always break-in with 20w-50 motor oil for 100 miles and then run Redline Shockproof Heavy afterwards. With all that said, the folks having issues finding neutral, please make sure to set shifter drum endpla and the shift pawl adjustment correctly. MANUAL instead), but then again anybody building their own transmissions should have HD factory manual on hand. I do wish the supplied instructions were a bit more clear/organized (use the ULTIMA 6 SPEED LSD Only issue I can report is the supplied quad seal can spring a leak easily, so I always use a HD OEM one (only $1 at dealer) Make sure you have the right tools to press bearings/main gear Overall quality is way better than I ever expected Gears and shafts are already put together making install super easy Bearings are top notch NTN,NSK or IKO and all made in Japan (HD now supplies FAG, made in Korea) Since then I have bought 4 of these 6 speed builder's kits and have noticed a few things. If they fixed that issue I would have rated it a 5 star.īeing a little skeptical at first, I bought my first Ultima 6 speed transmission 5 years ago, and still have it running behind a big motor without issue.
UG But as long as it holds up to my ridding the a very small loss.
Only complaint is Neutral light comes on 3rd or 4th gear instead of in Neutral. The Ultima sifts smoother than the stock Harley 5 speed and the rev tech 6 speed I had previously, Its also easier to hit Neutral with the Ultima. So I ordered the Ultima from E-Bay witch was over 300 bucks cheaper than the Rivera Primo anyway. So I returned it to JP Cycles witch took them 20 day's after they received it and 4 phone calls latter, to finally get my refund. I ordered a Rivera Primo to replace it with, witch upon inspection found the shifting barrel hadn't been correctly machined for one of the shifting forks. Also paid over 900 bucks without a trap door, so I had to assemble all the gears and such then spent another couple for a billet trap door. After bending my shifting forks in the rev tech 6 speed I installed 2 years ago, as they only have 3 instead of 4 forks like everyone else.
