Gonna help a friend replace the shifter shaft in his 06' streetbob this weekend. Figure id ask here if its a no brainer from the experienced. And i do have a manual just in case i get lost lol. Also is there anything else i should check while im inside the primary since it is an 06?

 

Tell him to replace the IPB with the heavy duty Baker one since you will already have it open.

 

Ill bring it up but i doubt he has the cash for that right now. The least i could do is check it out tho...he called me last night and asked me to help him by doing this for him (he's a newbie) cuz he knows i do my own work and an indy quoted him 250 in labor just to replace his cuz its stripped.

 

You can get one for $12.00-$16.00 from a bearing house. There are plenty of those in your area. I lived in Escondido for 20 years.
I can't find the package I had for the # but someone on here should have it.

 

Oh sweet i was thinking the cost was a lot more...he should be able to afford that lol

 

from what i have been reading you cant afford not to , unless you have to go with a new case that is a whole nother ball game .

 

Which shaft is he replacing? If it's the one that goes through the primary I have one if he needs it. It's the last piece of the mids I have left, cost of shipping and it's his. The baker bearing number is 6205Z if I remember correctly. I know it was posted in one of the IPB threads, might have been the one Patrick started with the poll.
