Do we have a BINGO? Start your bike up...put it in gear...put it back in neutral....listen....while running and in neutral listen some more, and let the clutch out..... any thing sound different?
the IPB will sound like metal roller skates on a sidewalk when you do this simple test. Mine did.... and '06 DYNAS have a history of that problem.

Taking the outer primary off will most likely not reveal an IPB issue. If you remove the inner primary and roller bearing start falling or not to the floor then you know for sure if the bearing is good or bad. If you have 55K on a replaced OEM IP bearing, you are doing better than most of us.

There's more to it than that...Although the Baker bearing is a good repair, pritty much "Bullet proof" there are underlying problems with the trans. case and inner primary on some of the'06 DYNAS.
