Longer Gear Lever
Can anyone point me in the right direction for an after market gear shift ? What with the off road boots and bigger pegs changing gear can be a ***** , having to heal up !!! and i'm crap at it :blob9:
Phil |
dont know if this helps mate but i filed my gear lever down a bit at the bit which sticks out keeping the gear rubber bit at right angles. this means the gear rubber sits at a different angle which suits my size 12's and allows me to change as normal. (Does that make sense)

Of course you could always go the convoluted way,like this picture I took in Merzouga,of an Italian XR650....move footpeg back,add extensions and bars along with nuts and bolts and a few voodoo spells....

WOW !!!! that pics freaky
I cut and welded a piece into my DR650 stick !!! snapped on a fall last W/E probably my bad welding !! Just thought there'd be a company out there that did em, it's something that i always carry as a spare along with a clutch lever anyway I'll keep looking :popcorn2: |
Off the road?
Phil,
Off the road sells one - not sure how much bigger it is than standard and it is definitely not adjustable in length - so may not resolve your issue?? It does have a folding tip on it though, which is the reason that I bought it (I am yet to test this feature - give me a couple of weeks). However, with a higher than standard lever placement to use with boots and while standing, it does appear to be closer to the engine case than I would prefer. At �32.90 - not the most expensive or the cheapest solution and I believe it is a TT re-sold item. http://www.off-the-road.de/XT-660-Z-...0Z-Tenere.html Cheers, Dale |
Cheers Dale
I've ordered one and i think you're right it is a TT re sale but �2 cheaper Thanks Phil |
No problem - glad I could help and I quietly hope that it is the right size for your needs. :thumbsup:
And yes, the installation instructions are TT and it was definitely cheaper from OTR than TT UK (�38!) with the upside of an impressive delivery time. Nope - I'm not on commission for OTR :D Cheers, Dale |
