Cruise Drive Smooth Shift Kit
Celebrating his 25th anniversary in business in 2023 , Harley transmission specialist Bert Baker has taken the same design principles that have made the Baker Drivetrain Six-Speed Overdrive shift so smooth and applied them to create a shift drum / pillow block kit that will bolt onto any cruise drive six-speed and give super smooth and precise shifting . The pillow block included with the kit is machined from 6061-T6 extrusion stock for a significant increase in strength over the factory design . Features include redundant neutral to assist the rider in finding neutral " the first time , every time . " Smoother , more positive shifting is achieved by incorporating advanced geometry in the fork pin grooves , and the integration of a linear detent bearing on the right-side mounting plate . The fixed spindle drum design offers lower friction as the drum rotates , reducing the effort required by the rider to complete a shift . " Each design improvement combines in a precise mechanical choreography that is inherently silent ." Baker explains that there is no need to disassemble the stock gearset from the bearing door - " just pull out the stock gearset and swap out the stock shift drum for the Baker smooth shift kit drum ." No adjustments are needed for the shift drum , direct bolt in design that re-uses the stock shifter pawl , stock pawl centering pin , shift forks and fork rods . Applications include 2007-2026 Touring , 2007- 2017 Softail and 2017 and up M-8 Applications . Also seen here , Baker N1 Shift Drums for five and six speed models have a 0-down all-up shifting pattern and eliminate any possibility of catching neutral on aggressive 1-2 shifts . Neutral is below first . The N1 drum is also popular with hand shifting bikes where finding neutral without doubt , or error , is critical to safety or riding / looking smooth . " We start with a solid chunk of steel , machine in all the features , then remove the unnecessary material .

Two Teflon-coated bushings are pressed into the drum axis bore for smooth rotation on shifts ." The N1 drum changes the shift pattern from the standard 1-N-2-3-4 to N-1-2-3-4 . Baker also offers the N1 for 1952-1979 ' ratchet tops ' with no modification and standard shift pattern drum replacements .
