Default Shifter rods

Im looking for a shifter rod.

Anyone use these?

Other ideas? I want to get rid of the ugly factory rod.
Something simple.

Check ebay for the Mickey's rods -- they always have an auction going and you get your choice of any of their models. I never managed to win one of theirs, but did get a really nice slotted one from Motherwell Products. No pictures yet, but you'll be happy with the result no matter which direction you go, it's an easy "flashy" mod.

AND...it allows you to replace the stockball and socket linkage ends with some way more reliable heim joints

I put the HD polished Stainless Steel rod on my bike. Cost's about $90 but its clean, simple, and has the nice heim joints on the ends.

Replacement rod installed and the stock one is on top of the primary cover.
