Who's got a jockey shift?
Dont know why.. I get these ideas in my head.. must be the combination of the cold weather, and the lack of riding latley. I have this idiot idea of installing a jockey shift now.. hopefully it'll pass. Who's had one, or rode one? Am I a complete idiot, or is it just me? I get these ideas in my head, and there they stay..So far, I wanna have the dual fishtails & a air ride system installed when it warms up..Just dont know if I like the idea of a foot clutch.

Don't do the foot clutch.....use the hand lever clutch that is attached to the jockey shift so you can always have both feet on the ground at a stop....I've seen this in tons of mags and also the guys at OCC did a bike with the jockey shift and had the clutch on the shifter as a hand clutch....take the plunge, it'll be cool, you're not an idiot.....

One of my riding buddies has an '01 Springer with Apes, a jockey shift, and foot clutch.....It's a bitchin scoot. He said learning to ride with a foot clutch took some getting used to. I think it looks really good, and he loves it.....Not MY style, but hey, I'm not the one paying for it.

if I can ride with a foot clutch anyone can. the clutch on the shifter is lame IMO.
just practice throwing it in nuetral before you stop.
half the look is cleaning clutter of the bike. why move the clutter from the bars to the side of the bike?
I would say lower the crap out of the rear end, suicide shift it and throw down some miles.
