7 gears and still no OD gear. I wish they would make one with a 1:1 6th and a slight overdrive in 7th for crusing, these bikes all make plenty of torque to pull down the road at a lower RPM considering my 5 speed has a 1:1 5th probably just a higher finial drive than the 6 speed bikes do.

Even though the 7th gear is still only a 1:1 ratio its a direct drive from the primary, hence the DD part. If you look at the ratio and rpm charts on bakers site the seventh gear gives a lower rpm than the HD sixth. Supposed to be smoother also.

7... is that all!, hell I'm waiting for Eaton to make a version of their Fuller lightning 10 speed for Harleys.
Of course someone will then want a 12 speed....
81 Honda CB 900 Custom had a dual range 5 speed transmission .. 10 speeds.
I have a two speed in my bike "Fast and Stop".
