Recently, I've had some difficulty with the 2-3 upshift on my MagXL - I just replaced a slave cylinder which I thought was the only issue I had (clutch in good shape). However, in the last race once the box gets hot, shifts up were very firm and very slow. No grinding, so I didn't initially suspect an issue with worn blocker rings on the synchronizer.
Anyone with some expertise in transmissions or experience around this sort of thing? I am going to swap the clutch master and the fluid in the trans (it has a fresh BG fill - but I am going to test some different weight fluids)
You can see the slow upshifts in this video:
Compared to this video where the shifts are quick and smooth:
Also, anyone tear into one of these? My usual rebuild vendor hasn't been answering their phones as of late, and I've had a few colleagues encourage me to just open it up myself (looks like a shop press and a long set of gear pullers are the only missing tools, though I can't find a service manual specific to the magnum variants)
