calling all jockey shifters...touring guy needs some info
Hey everyone. I'm looking for some info from you guys who are running jockey shift setups on your scoots. I have a 2008 Road King and am thinking about running a jockey on her. Yes...slightly unconventional but I've never seen one and I'm a fan of the "old school cool" thing so for those reasons I want one but looking for some info before I jump in. So I'm running true dual pipes. Will the shift lever interfere with the left pipe or the passenger floorboards? What shift lever are u running (straight handle or threaded rod with ball or t-handle etc) and is it comfortable using it/do you have any issues? Any info and especially pictures will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I saw one as well and he just bent it also
(just be aware when first getting used to it that you dont grab a handfull of pipe lol)

My apologies sir. It helps when u read all the words in the post and not just click the link lol. I think I’m just gunna order the Labriola kit and bend and persuade the lever to fit where I need it to be. It looks like I will have enough room to shift, but if not ill put the heat to it and force it to work.

Mikeskins...hell yes!!! Full jockey/foot clutch setup. I posted this question in the touring section and got the "WTF are u thinking?!?!?" response which only made me wanna do it more. And Midgard ill def post pics here and in the touring sections just to see what they think. And for u guys with them honestly how hard is it and how long does it take to get used to? I'm assuming there is a learning curve but some guys run from it like its the damn plauge.
