CLANK!!!
Thats what my 06 Low Rider sounds like when I shift gears. All the way to 6th. And then all of the way back down to 1st. I was reading other posts where guys said it clanked in 1st and 2nd but it makes no difference what gear I am shifting to. Anyone else experiance this or should the dealer be looking at it?
By the way....just bought it so I am still learning the sounds of sweetness.

Try switching to a full synthetic gear oil like Mobil 1 75/90.

Redline Heavy is also highly recommended.
HD Syn3 will make her CLANK real good.

If it is really bad, make sure your tranny fluid is up to the full mark.
I use Redline Shockproof which quiets is down some and makes neutral a breeze to find.

RE: CLANK!!!
Yes, that's my plan for the next few days. I took some leave, so I'll be able to take my time and do my 1,000 mile service correctly. First timer, so I've given myself plenty of time...
