Complete OEM mid control set up.

Didn't have the brake lever installed in this pic... installed it the next day. I removed the forward control on that side completely along with the mount and plugged the holes with chrome plugs. Had to remove the heat shields for all that hooplah.

I almost forgot. the first thing the old man drug home was a 1965 Harley (Aermachi) M50. It was a 3 speed with the shifter being the left hand grip. From there it was all 125 Yamahas until the Hodaka craziness set in.

Never ridden a left hand throttle.

What kind of project is it to remove the internal stuff you're missing from my bike to get you fully switched over?

Do I have to change the inner primary or is there a block off plate or something that goes in there? My bike would look better without the little nub of a mid shifter cover on there.

Have to pull the inner primary. Mine is plugged up but I'm not sure how... sure does have a lot of RTV on it.

Graham, the shocks are FXDX shocks.

I might be up to that. I'd need to swap you for that blank off cover for the outer primary though. I might need to think about this one for a bit, its a few hours of work out there in the cold.

Don't worry about it man... I'm happy with my GP shift set up, and it's going to be a long time before that inner primary comes off again.
