Description of the problem	This is a description of the drivability problems caused by the excessive primary case fluid. While in motion on a city street the motorcycle would sometimes not shift down from 3rd-2nd or from 2nd to 1st gears. This causes problems when turning and wanting to use engine breaking to slow down during the turn. I could not use the engine breaking and would have to use the brakes quickly as to not cause an accident. Also, when sitting still with engine running in neutral at a traffic light, the transmission would sometimes not shift from neutral to 1st gear. The delay in trying to proceed causes other motorists to almost run into the back of my motorcycle. This was most dangerous when traveling in a group of motorcycles riding close together. Also, during an emergency stop condition when traveling on a city street about 50 mph in 5th gear, it is very difficult get out of the way from cars or trucks behind me. This is because you must be in a lower gear than 3rd to get out of the way once you have come close to stopping. Motorcycles can stop much quicker than cars or trucks. If i can
