Most motorcycles have 5 speed transmissions although there are a number of bikes with 6 speeds including Harley's big twins.
The 2002 Harley-Davidson Fat Boy is equipped with a 5-speed transmission. This setup allows for smooth shifting and a comfortable riding experience. The 5-speed transmission is standard for many Harley models of that era, providing a balance of performance and cruising capability.
A WL Harley transmission operates using a three-speed sequential gearbox, which allows the rider to shift gears by moving a lever connected to the transmission. The system employs a series of gears and shafts that engage and disengage, enabling smooth transitions between gears as the motorcycle accelerates or decelerates. The clutch allows the rider to disconnect the engine from the transmission temporarily, facilitating easier gear changes. Overall, the design prioritizes durability and ease of use, characteristic of classic Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
