Steamer Gear Change Lever REFURB/ UPGRADE

[Mustang]

I'd like some more information on the shifter tip you installed.  Mine has had it.  All the shifter tips I find are the ones that bolt from the top.  Where did you find one that would bolt to the horizontal hole in the Tiger shifter?

I 'found it" inside of a pc. of billet aluminum  

Seriously though , I made it on a lathe and a bridgeport milling machine .

Too late for me.  I just had new steering head bearings installed at the dealer.  It was a major investment, ouch!   I don't have any place to work on the bike right now though.

However,  the shifter overhaul is extremely useful, thanks for posting these tips.

I hate you guys... 'Oh I just popped a piece of billet in the water jet in my garage or I just bent this up and then milled it on my lathe.'

If I can not fix it with a cordless drill and a pair of vice grips I am out!  Just kidding.  I love what you guys come up with.  A friend with a machine shop is a good friend indeed...

I know of two tiger in need of this fix!

More work for Mustang

You guys do know that you can just replace the whole ridiculous assembly with a short shifter like the Girly, right?  I hated the stock shifter so much I replaced it on my bike before I really even rode it.

Would you have a picture of said Girly shifter on your Steamer?

I have found that the length difference has no effect on usability.
