Bagger Racing with the Baker GrudgeBox
 
Requiring no case modifications for installation, and as used by Trask in its Bagger Racing 2017 Road Glide, the Baker GrudgeBox was designed for big engine applications and engineered with a focus on "excessive torque capacity and crisp shifting."
"The power-robbing nature of the stock helical gears were replaced with straight-cut spur gears for minimal parasitic losses associated with gear-to-gear torque transfer. Circumferential tooth thickness is 100% thicker than stock and the width is 40% thicker than stock for no excuses on strength and durability."  



Built to take high horsepower abuse found in late model H-D performance applications while providing elegant shift precision, it is available for 2006-2017 Dyna, 2007-up Softail and Touring and 2017 and up M-8 applications.  
Bert Baker says that the straight 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th gears are "designed and geared for performance buffs, racers and speed freaks seeking negligible power loss. We use wide-ratio gearing for heavier performance applications.
"The GrudgeBox is built for aggressive take-offs and long distances at above-average speeds with a 250 rpm drop at higher highway speeds (approx. 80 mph) - our engineering focus throughout the design has been on excessive durability and we use a patent-pending bulletproof main drive gear bearing with gears up to 40% wider than stock, positive dog tooth engagement in gear with pie-shaped shift dogs and frictionless linear detent shift system for smooth shifting."
