Phantom Shifts

[Texas TC]

I posted B.C....that after running 80+ mph for over 6 hours, I came off the highway and I shifted up thru the gears and the O.D. light never came on...later slowed and stopped for a light and all was good after that and it has not happened since....usually when the phantom shift occurs it has something to do with a lazy shift or a new pair of shoes.....

I agree with you 100%. However, once it occurs, it seems to keep happening. It probably messes up the syncronizers or gears once it happens. The key, I believe, is to never have a lazy shift. My mini floorboards actually assist me in providind more positive shifting because they move my foot foreward, closer to the shifter which reduces the amount of movement required.

Never had an issue with the OD lights but did have TPMS system light problems on my 2012 Wing. Since we don't have TPMS on the F6B, I can check that potential problem off the list.

Given that WE have a couple members on this forum...one named Phantom, and the other named Ghost...I have to wonder if they have something to do with this phenomenon, or...are they taking your bikes for a ride ????????
