Default Baker DD6

I just had my Baker DD6 transmission installed in my 2006 Road Glide on Friday. I am overjoyed at the way my bike performs. It has never shifted as smooth as it does right now. The noise and vibration has been greatly reduced and the bike seems to be more responsive in the mid gears. This has been one of the best upgrades I have ever made to my bike! I love it!!

Cool, refreshing to read posts where peeps go with upgrading what they have versus reading about the new one they bought.
Everything I have read sounds like Baker has done their homework and know how to gear, as well as build what the make very well.
Enjoy..........

I recently "begged" a friend to go with a Baker DD6 but instead he went the road of saving a bunch of money and installing a Revtech, I'm not even going to begin explaining the problems he's had, lets just say in the end, he's flat broke but now has a Baker DD6 and well, almost, couldn't be happier......An expensive "told yea so"
