Default New 6 speed locked up

Hey everyone, I like to help out when I can and very seldom post but the strangest thing happened about 30 minutes ago. This weekend I put a new 6 speed tranny in my Big Twin she was purring like a kitten on the freeway cruisen bout 65 or so and she locked up on me...almost went off the rode...held on and she came to a screeching halt. Havent torn it down yet but after I was on the side of the rode ten minutes she rode me home...in like 4th or 5th gear...any ideas?

Going to have to open it up and have a look. Too many moving parts it's just a guessing game at this point.
