Is it just me or does anyone else catch themselves clutching for the 6th gear on thier 06 5-speed???? LOL......Maybe I've been doing it all the time, but every since the 07 6-speed can out, I realize it when I try for that 6th gear!!!

Just a funny story!!!!!!!

 

Don't waste it on a conversion.....make the move on an '07.....then you'll be reaching for that 7th gear!

 

DONT LISTEN TO HIM ... get one...i did(not installed yet tho)... tired of shiftin into imaginary 6th [:-] ... i have spent more than i'd get if i sold it or traded it...so this ones mine til then

 

don't get me wrong guys.... I love my 06 Street Glide. It's the sweetest thing on the road...........wouldn't trade it for nothing or upgrade......if the 07 didnt have a 6-speed, I'd still find myself clutching for 6th........

So, dont think I'm hate'in on my 06... I talk to her at least every day, especially when it rains. I've spoiled her, haven't seen any water except from my water hose!!!!!!

 

I do it sometimes myself. Doesn't bother me enough to want to trade into an 07.

 

Guess I'm weak! Bought an 06 Dyna for my wife and after riding it the 6 speed made so much of an impression (and the fact I wanted an SG), that I immediately sold my 05 Fatboy and bought an 07 SG. Pick it up wednesday...can't wait. If you're happy with your 06, buy and install the 6 speed. Gearing was the only complaint I EVER had on my 05. Getting it in an SG sweetens the deal.

Question is after getting a six speed will you be looking for 7th gear?

 

Now thats a good idea!! Dont trade those awesome 06's get that Baker 6 Speed!!!

 

i put 500 miles on my new 2007 electra glide standard in the last two days. 6th gear aint happy unless its doing over 70! i hit it once or twice but it was hard staying under 65. heat was a lil rough but well worth it! after all just remember to smile, smile and wave boys, smile and wave...

 

Totaly agree, and yes I'm reaching for 6th (which I do not have) all the time.
