RE: Jocky Shift
I've thought about it, but thats probably as far as I'll ever get. Seems to me it would be a real hassel to use and dangerous in close quarters........Although I've got to admit it sure would add a slick look to the bike.

RE: Jocky Shift
Would you have to move to a foot clutch? This looks totally sick but It would be almost impossible to clutch with your left hand and reach over and shift with your right. Am I wrong here?

Great thanks Gunshow now I have a new obsession. A jockey shift with an autoclutch. Check this out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Izc2oTImyjc

Toyed around with the idea. Actually wanted to maybe put one on but also maybe leave the foot shifter for in town heavy traffic. Just tossing ideas around.

RE: Jocky Shift
ooh yes you can... i have seen plenty of people that just run a bar up from the shift linkage, and call that a jocky shift... now a true jocky will use a foot clutch but what he is thinking of was postingon here about a year ago... it is a normal shifter with a bar off the shift linkage... kind of pointless not to mention must be impossible to use with the clutch on the same side... just for looks i guess.
