I saw a video of the shaft being removed with the primary on, when I was having problems with my 2012 bagger with a shifter shaft coming loose... We're talking 6 years ago..

I had heard it could be removed without removing the primary, but wasn't sure I believed it... until I saw the video..

Damn.. ​​​​​​sorry but I can't find a link now... I apparently didn't save it, and a Google/YouTube search couldn't locate it.. I don't even remember what it was called...

I ended up tightening mine and it held for the rest of the time I owned that bike, so I never actually did it myself.. but I was ready to try removing it and replacing it if I had to, after I saw the video..

Sorry I couldn't find it... maybe someone will read this and know of it.. I've seen it, so I know it exists...

It will hold up better based on our materials and finishing.
I don't know, I emailed Baker a couple of times about my attitude adjuster breaking and only got crickets!
