Reported: 2006-08-07 (August 7, 2006)
CERTAIN MY 2001 VICTORY V92 MOTORCYCLES, AND 1999-2000 V92 MOTORCYCLES THAT RECEIVED TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT KITS BUILT IN 2001 CAN EXPERIENCE A THIRD GEAR FAILURE IN AN ABNORMAL OVERLOAD CONDITION SUCH AS WHEN SHIFTING AT HIGH RPM.
Consequence: WHILE SHIFTING GEARS AT HIGH RPM, THE THIRD GEAR MAY FAIL. IF PIECES OF THE FAILED GEAR BECOME LODGED IN THE TRANSMISSION, THE TRANSMISSION COULD LOCKUP POSSIBLY RESULTING IN LOSS OF CONTROL AND A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A REAR SPROCKET DAMPER ASSEMBLY FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 22, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT POLARIS AT 763-417-8650.

THE TRANSMISSION HAS SHIFTED HARD & LOUD SINCE I BOUGHT THE VICTORY. IT HAS ALSO POPPED OUT OF GEAR & SKIPPED GEARS FREQUENTLY. THE PROBLEMS ARE MOST COMMON WHEN SHIFTING 3/2, 2/3, 4/3, 3/4. THE DEALER SAID IT IS JUST THE NATURE OF THE BEAST. I ASKED ANOTHER DEALER & I WAS TOLD THE SAME THING. ONE DEALER I SPOKE WITH NO LONGER CARRIES THE VICTORY LINE AND THE OTHER IS COMPLETELY OUT OF BUSINESS. I AM A VERY EXPERIENCED TECHNICIAN,AND MOTORCYCLE RIDER. IT IS CLEAR THAT MY VICTORY HAS A SERIOUS TRANSMISSION CONCERN. I CONTACTED VICTORY,THEY SAID…
