I am wondering if anyone knows where to find trans parts. I have an 07 XB12R with no 3rd gear. Is the gear set the same in the sportys?? Any help would be awesome. Thanks
I'm sure other more knowledgeable people will chime in, but from what I know the engine/trans is nearly identical to the sporty's. Also check out americansportbike.com I'm not sure if they have what you're looking for but they have a lot for these bikes.

I got all my new tranny parts and gears from a 1200 sporster off that site. If you have doubts, go to or call your harley dealer to cross reference the parts. That's what I did...
Welcome to the Forum, Some years are the same the newer they are. I have never mixed parts due to warranty & different Gear wearing issues, always use new parts here at the shop. It is best to remove and check out the Needed possible repair & buy a new part when it comes to Transmission Parts. The XB Buells are somewhat more powerfull when it comes to TorQue than a sporster. The Trannys really take a beating from some riders, this is why I really preach about using 75/90 synthetic Amsoil for best protection. Redline works really well for the Buell/Sportster style Tranny.
If you have only lost 3rd gear then most likely it's the Shifter Drum or the [Shifter Cam Assembly] as it's now called,Check out the Outer Primary parts and look for damage to the Shifter Forks first. Post up when you can. [Buellister Parts] used parts in good condition, Look him up,& May be able to help you with that. Hope it's an Easy fix.*Jimi
