2000 Victory V92SC Sportcruiser Problems

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 VICTORY V92SC SPORTCRUISER MOTORCYCLE. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH AND SHIFTING INTO THIRD GEAR HE HEARD A LOUD POP AND THE MOTORCYCLE FAILED TO SHIFT GEARS. BEFORE THE CONTACT TOOK HIS VEHICLE TO THE DEALER HE CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS TOLD THAT HIS VIN WAS RELATED TO NHTSA#06V298000 COMPONENT: POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY WOULD REPAIR THE VEHICLE IN A COUPLE OF DAYS; HOWEVER, AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HE NOTICED THAT THIRD AND FOURTH GEARS WERE INOPERABLE. THE DEALER LATER STATED THAT HE WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING $2,800 TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED SINCE HIS VIN WAS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL ALTHOUGH THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT IT WAS RELATED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,410.

I HAVE A 2000 VICTORY V92SC AND IT HAS 1510 MILES ON IT AND WHEN I SHIFT FROM 2ND TO 3RD IT WILL SHIFT FINE BUT AT HIGHER RPMS IT WILL SLIP OUT, IF I TRY TO SHIFT FROM 2ND TO 3RD OR DOWN FROM 4TH TO 3RD AT HIGH RPMS IT WILL NOT GO IN AT ALL AND THIS CAUSES ME TO NOT HAVE A GEAR WHEN CALLED FOR. I FEEL THAT IF 3RD GEAR WAS TO BREAK IT WOULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE RECALL IS NOT COVERED ON THE SC BUT IT IS FOR THE V92. I WAS TOLD BY DEALER THIS WOULD COST 1500.00+ AT MY EXPENSE WITH SUCH LITTLE MILES MAKES ME VERY WORRIED ABOUT SELLING THIS BIKE TO SOMEONE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 VICTORY V92SC SPORTCRUISER. WHILE RIDING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT WHEN HE WOULD CHANGE GEARS, THE VEHICLE WOULD DROP FROM THIRD TO SECOND AND THEN TO FOURTH GEAR. THE NEUTRAL INDICATOR WOULD ILLUMINATE, BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT BE IN GEAR. THE FAILURE COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A CRASH. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE THIRD GEAR FAILED AND COULD BE REPAIRED AT THE COST OF $3,200. ALL THE PARTS TO REPLACE THE GEARS HAVE BEEN DISCONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL DEALER AND HAVE ALL THE RECALLS REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED FOR THE RECALLS; HOWEVER, THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WERE NOT LIABLE FOR THE ISSUES WITH THE GEARS SLIPPING BECAUSE THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR THAT PARTICULAR FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 18,300.

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH AND LETTING OFF OF THE GAS THE TRANSMISSION KNOCKED. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN BELOW 40 MPH AND THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT KNOCK. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED HOWEVER THE MAIN TECHNICIAN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THERE WERE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL ON THE INTERNET WHICH INDICATED THE TRANSMISSION LOCKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

AFTER RECALL FOR FUEL PUMP REPLACEMENT THE SYMPTOMS FOR WHICH THE RECALL WAS REQUIRED NOW HAVE MADE THE VEHICLE DO EXACTLY WHAT THE RECALL WAS MADE FOR IN THE FIRST PLACE. I DID NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THIS WORK WAS DONE. *AK
