#BAKER HARLEY TRANSMISSION FULL#

The DD7's door bearings, for example, are 28-percent wider than stock. No case modifications, shimming of the gear set or complicated adjustments are required. The DD7 Builder's Kit comes with everything needed for the conversion, and it comes ready to slide right into the bike. This is the kind of transmission those new Harleys should have come with in the first place. The result is smooth, crisp and continuously pulling acceleration from 1st through 4th gears, and when you get into the cruising portion of the gear set (5th through 7th gears) there's no big drop in RPM from one gear to the next. Instead of designing the DD7 gear set as a deep overdrive, Baker shortened the I st gear ratio and tightened up the ratios of all the other gears.

With the reconfigured gear ratios, a Harley is able to make full use of all the torque and power of its 96-, 103- and 110-inch engine. To further improve shifting the DD7 also incorporates a new linear roller-ball detent as part of its billet top cover, a technology first used in the Baker TorqueBox. With the DD7 installed, the Harley 'shift clunk' is noticeable only by its absence. The DD7, in comparison, uses a strong but lightweight main shaft and only includes the small I st gear as an integral part. The audible clunk at every gear change in the factory 6-speed is caused by the heavy rotating weight and high inertia of that I -piece main shaft. The factory main-shaft is a heavy one-piece design that includes 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears. Because of that shorter first gear, and all the new gear ratios following it, the DD7 makes the bike feel more responsive overall, almost like some serious motor work had been done.Р”Р„nother complaint with the H-D trans is shifter clunk. The DD7 fixes that with a shorter I st 'gear for much improved off-the-line acceleration. The Baker DD7, a Direct Drive 7-Speed, is a complete gear-set replacement for the Cruise Drive Harley-Davidson factory 6-speed, and it improves that transmission, and the bike it's in, in lots of ways besides adding one more gear.Р”Р„ common complaint from riders is that the factory 1st gear in the Harley 6-speed transmission is way too tall, which makes the bikes feel sluggish when leaving a stoplight. While 2nd and 3rd gears are diamond ground, spur gears to handle the peak torque that is reached in that range.The Baker DD7, a Direct Drive 7-Speed, is a complete gear-set replacement for the Cruise Drive Harley-Davidson factory 6-speed. By utilizing fully diamond ground, helical gears in 1st & 4th-7th they are able to deliver a much quieter riding experience. Through the use of a billet bearing door, 28% wider bearings in the door, steel bearing retainer plates and full width gears, the durability and strength of our unit is a drastic improvement. They have tightened up the dog teeth on the gears to prevent the loud clacking noise that accompanies every shift on the factory 6 speed. They ditched the stock detent arm and spring assembly from the door in favor of a Linear Detent that decreased friction while increasing smoothness when coupled with the all new shift drum design. Reduction in rotating mass for shift quality is a fact that has been utilized in the automotive world for years. They improved the smoothness and crispness of the shifting by reducing the mainshaft mass by only having 1st gear be a part of the shaft, rather than 1st-4th gears like on the stock unit. No big drops in RPM from one gear to the next or lugging the motorcycle off of a stop light, just smooth, uninhibited acceleration.Р”В«aker did not stop at just fixing the gear ratios. Then you are able to start getting into the cruising portion of the program in gears 5th-7th. The gear ratios leave you the rider, with the experience of smooth, crisp, continuously pulling acceleration from 1st all the way through 4th gear. We did not make this transmission a deep overdrive, rather we shortened 1st gear and tightened up the gears to deliver the riding experience that you were after when you bought your bike. That 7th gear enables the motorcycle to now make full use, by way of gear ratio management, of the torque and power put out by the new 96Р’В CI and 110Р’В CI motors rolling off the assembly line in Milwaukee. The BAKER DD7 is more than just another gear added to the mix for the sake of one-upmanship.

The DD7 upgrades any existing 2006-later big twin 6 speed to a full 7 speed transmission.
