The motorcycle: 1942 civilianized WLA, decent condition, good engine, rides great.
The problem: Shifts nicely from 1st to 2nd and back again. Shifts nicely into 3rd but refuses to shift back into second. After coming to a stop it still requires a lot of force to get back into the lower gears. Any ideas? I know better than to attempt any repairs myself so another question would be...any tranny mechanics near Charlotte, NC? I'd even remove it and ship it if someone who knows what they're doing would do a rebuild. I've read enough to know these old 45 transmissions require special tools and some experience to do a proper repair/rebuild.
Thanks for any and all advice.
