The rear left wheel shimmies... axle or wheel doing it? right wheel is fine... Also it loses power as it heats up... And the tranny some times sticks in gear and wont come out till u beat the lever good... Tell me how to fix her up!

swap the rear tires and see if the shimmy changes position. when was the last time you changed the oil with real motorcycle oil? do you do alot of low speed riding?

I never put regular motorcycle oil in it... Just topped off what was in it with pennzoil 10w-40. Will that help with the heat?

It probly wont help the shift . ( if the shift sticks in one gear all the time it's probly a slite bend in a shift fork ) But pennzoil is crap oil . I would not even run it in a sh!t box car. I use 20-50 Castrol. loss of power sounds like ayou need to ajust the valves. the shimmy could be bent rim , loss hub nut or bent axle shaft.
