Topic: RE: CB750A torque converter and gearbox questions

[chewbacca5000]

Been thinking more about getting an auto as they are kinda different from other bikes out there and wondering about postential issues with the gear box and torque converter.

Does the automatic have a problem with slipping out of high/2nd gear at all?

Also how reliable are the torque converters and what is the cost of a replacement?

if it has been treated ok and always had good oil, it'll be fine.

Does the automatic have a problem with slipping out of high/2nd gear at all?
Nope,,,,,its an an auto clutch and not a true automatic.  you can drive around in 2nd gear all day without shifting never slips out of gear

Also how reliable are the torque converters and what is the cost of a replacement?
bullet proof...
