What shifters do you have?

adjustment after a while?
And so non-indexed, and presumably we can rule out user-related issues.
Do they both have the same number of sprockets? Have there been any
special mods to your setup that might make shifting better? (The trick
of swapping upper and lower pulleys comes to mind as one possibility.)
Have you ruled out slippage of his Silvers caused by assembly issues
regarding the washers? If you swap wheels with him (assuming you can -
I don't know if both models take the same wheel size) does the ghost
shifting follow the wheel to the other bike?
Regarding adjustment: the usual "cable stretch / housing bedding" issues
shouldn't matter here, as it would appear that both bikes are using
friction shifting, in which case the only possible stretch issue would
be not quite enough tension to fully center the shift on the largest
sprocket (or, if you've got arsey-versey derailleurs, I guess it would
be onto the smallest sprocket).
