Default shift lever on trans orientation?

anyone know the orientation for the shift lever on the trans? would hate to bolt it down and have to remove the primary later on because it's off. does this look about right?

if it's straight up, it would hit the drum adjustment bolt when upshifting.

thanks
mike

I have a 1990 Softail with a 5 speed. Do you want me to take a pic of the trans shift lever?

RLH3175 - that is a funny looking avatar, what is a "Seabee"?

A Seabee is a guy who will pave a runway while it is still being strafed and bombed, and look cool doing it...
