How about a heel-toe shifter for Dyna's; homemade?
1. dirt bike brake pedal
2. cut, weld, grind, dress, paint
3. install

Shift's nice, too.....

Looks good, but I never really did like the heal toe shifter thing. Never really thought of it as a benifit. Must be all the dirt bike/quad years under my belt.

I love seeing inprovised homegrown mods like this, just wish i had the space and gear to do stuff like this myself. Not so sure about having the skill and talent though...

Nice work, looks good as well!
