Did you have any sign before the failure? Like a noisy bearing at all? I have a 2017 general as well, with around 6500 miles on it and am having wicked noise from the transmission. Put new fluid in it about 50-60 miles ago and just drained it out the other day and there was an excessive amount of metal on the plug. Hoping to catch it before it blows out the side like yours did. But awesome fix by the way great video.

@@seaneyo2006 my nephew was riding it when it failed and he said there was no sign before it went. I believe it was a few months before that we changed the transmission oil and there was no excessive metal on the plug or in the oil in my opinion so we never thought anything about it at that time. I don’t know if more frequent oil changes would have helped or if the bearings were more vulnerable to wear but it could have been a little lack of maintenance when it came to the oil changes here. Lol. If you have noticed excessive metal in the transmission and you can rule out the clutches as being the cause of the noise, I’d say you may be headed down the same path as we were. Hopefully you have caught it in time. Good luck and keep us posted on your issues. Thanks for the kind words! 👍🏻
