There are some things to check on this model for poor drive performance, but it depends on which batch/version you have. Share the full serial number with me, and I'll pull up the service details.
For example, early production models had a drive clutch lever that could break at a weld, causing less the full engagement of the clutch.

Okay, so that's a "K0" or first production model of the HRM series.
First thing to check is the drive clutch lever/bar on the handlebar for broken/bent weld joint. This would prevent the cable from fulling engaging the transmission...seem like if the cable is adjusted to spec, it should not matter, but check it anyway to be sure:
Next, the shop manual say to check the drive belt, then for a possible internal fault in the trans. Early versions of this Tuff Torque transmission had service parts, but they have long been discontinued, so now only an entire replacement transmission is available.
Honda Part Number 06200-VE2-802 list price $139.29.
Looks like you are the original owner, John? 5/1/1992...still on Union Street? Almost 25 years is pretty good service for a mower transmission. If the rest of the mower is in good condition, might be worth throwing in a new trans.
