Yeh bacdog knows his Hondas, and heres another one to look at ,this guy actually put both springs back in:)
Honda CBR 929rr/954rr: HOW TO: CBR 929 Factory Pro Shift Kit Install w/ Clutch and Tranny Assessment

Check out the pics in the link below on Factory Pro's website showing a shift kit install. You will notice in all the pics the spring installed the same as my write-up. You want more tension on the lever arm otherwise installing a stiffer spring would be a waste of time. The spring and lever arm are installed first, then holding the lever arm up with a screwdriver you install the shift star.

Very good user install write up

Detent spring
 

Thank you.

[QUOTE=backdoc;1277319]UPDATE: Since replacing the drum and shift forks a few months ago I have not experienced any missed shifts or the bike falling out of gear. I am also using an air shifter now at the drag strip with great results to ensure no lazy shifts from me. For anyone who is experiencing shifting problems with their 929/954 I would recommend changing these parts before removing the engine and splitting the cases to replace gears in the transmission.

So Backdoc I just wanted to clarify and see if my issues are the same as yours..long story short I was riding down the highway one day and heard a pop and was told that it was my clutch fork so now I can’t get my bike to go into 3rd at all, would me purchasing these parts allow me to fix that issue? Because this far it has been said to me that I just need to purchase a whole new motorcycle engine.
