shift linkage?
Anyone have any interesting shift linkage? I found some that looks like barbedwire, thought I might add it, but thought I would check with you people first... any insight on any of this?
thanks a million!
Ride safe!

When you replace your shift linkage be sure to have both ends as heim joints. The stock linkage is a week link. I have seen a number of them fail on trips.

I picked one of Joker Machines linkages and stripped the chrome off and had it painted to match the rest of the bike.

Savannah,Ga Sheriff poker run. It was a raffle give away, the guy I was riding with won it. He had a Yamaha....soooooo..........I traded him a Chatham County sheriff's stuffed bear for it. I have not seen it again... even looked in the local bike shops here. But I am still looking
