Having problems i have a 96 royal star transmission is stuck in second gear checked linkage no problems there. Is this a common problem thanks for any help.

Not real common...but it does happen. Mine did that, found that the "Y" shaped pin inside the tranny had fell out.....in where the shift lever goes....dang it, wish I had better terminology....but anyways, it's not a difficult job they say.....the most difficult part is finding the "Y" shaped pin that fell out.........you'll have to do an oil change as well, apparently, if memory serves me correctly, you'll lose most of your oil when you open it up....take the inspection cover off. Mine happened 7 years ago....there might be a write up on this in the archives...do a search, or you might find some info on the delphi forum at Royal star venture and tour deluxe.

 

Hope I didn't confuse you too much.

You can leave the bike on the side stand and pull the clutch cover with very little loss of oil. That will allow you to look in the lower left corner behind the clutch pack and see if everything is hunky-dorry in there. Be sure to buy a new gasket before you start......
