So I just bought this Rincon with 1900 miles on it for $500. I was advised that the transmission had issues. I replaced the battery and cleaned the carb and changed the oil and oil filter. Used Honda parts and filled according to the manual. When I run it it seems to run fine and shift ok either in ESP or auto mode. Last night after starting it up, I rode it down the street. I stopped, put it into neutral then reverse. No issues. Then into drive. It would not move forward. It would creap forward with high throttle. I then put it into neutral then reverse with no issues. Then back into drive. Same thing. I then sat there for about a minute with a pretty high idle to sort of charge the brand new battery I thought might be low. Then put into drive and it worked ok.
Questions are: I doubt the change came off the oil pump then jumped back on, My battery is charged and brand new, I doubt it's blown o-rings as they usually deform once they blow only not to repair themselves. I also doubt its linkage as it does go into drive and rev. So what would cause this intermittent issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
