Baker 7-Speed DriveTrain
Anybody have one of these on their bikes? Baker DD7, Direct Drive 7-Speed Transmission. You can buy one on eBay.
From the site:
"Many complain that the factory 1st gear is too tall and these bikes feel bogged-down at the stoplight. The DD7 has a shorter 1st gear for improved get-up-and-go.
Because of the shorter first gear and following gear ratios, testers report that the bike feels like motor work has been done. The shift quality is unheard of as well.
The Harley-Davidson factory 6-speed ratios are: 1st (3.34), 2nd (2.30), 3rd (1.71), 4th (1.41), 5th (1.18), 6th (1.00).
The Baker DD7 transmission will have the following ratios: 1st (3.76), 2nd (2.75), 3rd (2.06), 4th (1.55), 5th (1.27), 6th (1.10), 7th (1.00)."

I'd love to have one. But I figured being a 7 speed that the Baker would be higher in 7th gear than the Harley 6th gear..?? Not sure if I wouldn't rather have the 6 speed........less shifting. I guess alot of the decision would be price difference. If my tranny ever goes, I'll definitely go with something geared higher for the open road.
