I agree with Curly, change the trans fluid and only use the Honda ATF Z-1
tranny fluid.
Also a worn front or rear motor mount can cause a hard shift and that is a
frequent cause of hard or banging shifts.
For the tranny to shift at 2700 RPM is not unusual, depending on your gas
pedal position or how hard or easy you accelerate. A Honda motor will rev
higher than most cars and do it safely. If your used to domestic cars and
this is your first Honda, you may see an extreme difference in engine speeds
in your everyday driving.
