i find the first hit is always better than the same (or is that lame) retaliation!!!

Funny you should mention lame....that fits nicely into the logic of your short shaft that might be lame but interesting.....ironic ain't it. 😂

hmmm, thats worse than the first one. 😂 😂 😂

Ironic that you would think that hey....I expected more 😂

i really resent that...

i've posted on this topic about the fact that cutting the shifter wont help to shorten the shift!

here's an excerpt:

this means that less throw will create the same movement below the pivot point. this does however call for the person doing the shifting to use more effort.

in short (scuse the pun) cutting the original shifters shaft will not give you a truely shorter shift. it will feel slightly different to stock but the amount of throw required to engage a particular gear will be the same as before!

i'm not so sure that angle has anything to do with it either. Wink

Veecee....on the issue of effort when shifting....a weighted shift knob will lessen the effort needed to shift from one gear to another.
