Default 30T mod on the cheap

Gaskets, bolts, Andrews 30T sprocket from zannotti $177
Baker inner primary bearing from ebay $32
Sears 2.25 socket $32
I cut the socket in half with my chop saw and welded a 6" piece of black iron pipe in the middle. The locking tool strap steel was free from the scrap bin. A lot of bang for the buck when you consider what you pay for air cleaners and exhaust pipes nowdays........

did you cut off the race from the input shaft? I used my dremel and made 2 cuts opposite of each other and took a small chisel and popped it right off. it is a good bang for the buck.you'll love it.if you freeze the Baker bearing it will go right in with out having to press it. worked for me.

I did the bearing just like you did. It was fast. The only hitch I had was my rather tired 1/2" air impact could not loosen the trans nut so I rented a 3/4 electric impact to do the the job. I also added an SE clutch pack and spring. My bike loves the new ratio, it should have come from Harley this way.......

The '06s had an issue with the IPB... your 07 should not need a new one.

Yes, stock belt still works. I have some room for adjustment left after moving the axle back so I am good to go.
