It looks like forwards. I can't see shifting with your leg covering the shifter.

These look great and are all time classics. I understand why people would want them. I also think that in certain road situations, the word "suicide" in "suicide shifter" is accurate and descriptive.

my buddy has a fatty and he just put a la borlia (spelling) on his, he loves it, we put it on, it was realy easy to instal and it is of good quality. i have a homeade jockey shift, we have a lot a fun with them, they are a blast,

i really like the way yr going with yr bike, right up my ally good stuff keep it up

o and don't buy directly form that "iron tail" company, bad experience with customer service, order strait from la borlia themselves...i think its also cheaper by a little bit. good luck
