Default Jockey shift installed!

Ok, I know toastman beat me to it a couple weeks ago but I had to show mine off too. It's a pretty straight forward install and the LaBriola kit is super top quality. It's an absolute blast to ride, not nearly as difficult as some would think or make you believe.

Been wanting to switch mine over on my WG, had one years ago and loved it as well. Did you get the short shift arm or long?

The dyna price is $399

There is only one length of shift arm you can get, the arm that the website refers to is the length of the arm already on the bike that connects to the splined trans shaft. The lever you get from LaBriola attaches to the existing arm, pretty slick setup really.

Did you leave all your switches up on the bar. If so what did you do with the housing for the clutch?

the switch housing is separate from the clutch perch, but the perch is still there as my mirror mounts to it. I might just machine it down so it will look better, or search around and see what my other options are. Maybe go with an internal throttle and different hand controls to clean up the bars completely.
