Default 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.

thanks for the ideas!

Chicago Spike, that is original, and I really dig the color match linkage!!!

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
