Thanks Froggy - I was going to link to the same thread. And The4ork - if you have a 05 primary cover that you're not going to use, I'm still looking for one for my Firebolt. Send me a PM if you are interested in selling it.

the 05 has a smaller shifter shaft so the primary cover does as well. I know there have been discussion on replacing the shifter shaft assembly to make it work but no it wont bolt right up.

You will have to change the shifter shaft if you want to use the 2005 cover on your 2006 model. The diameter of the shifter shaft was larger on the 2006 and up models. That part is a relatively easy part to replace. The other option would be to measure the diameter of a 2005 and older shaft, and turn your shaft down to that diameter.

If you decide not to go this route and want to part with the 05 cover, please PM me.
