I just got an 06 a buell xb9sx and want to turbo it eventually and get a 6 speed to get a higher top speed, are there any certain places to get a 6 speed for my buell?

None I know of, Baker had one for tubers but the XB did away with "trapdoor" so those ones won't work.

If you want a taller gearing, it would be most easy to swap the primary with one from a XB12.

You still have five gears but at least you would have more headroom and it would be far cheaper/easier.

XB engines require splitting the cases to get the tranny out. As far as I heard, baker-6 speeds are only for trapdoor trannies.

Couldn't he also go with a chain conversion and use a taller chain/sprocket set?

Sell it and but another bike, you bought the wrong one : ( If you want 6 speeds and higher top speed (and want to keep at least some reliability!) try Honda/Yamaha/Suzuki/Ducati/BMW........
