Default Toe/Heel Shifter
Hello all, I know this subject has been discussed before, but I am having a hard time finding a one piece toe/heel shifter for a 09 Night Train. The closest I have come to finding a one piece in billet is from dewyspegs.com, its call the heel slammer but does not fit a NT. Has anyone see anything eslse out there that will work.

Thank you

Put this on my mothers Street Bob, Awkward as hell to me, but so is the after market floor boards she has. Works for her though.

My Fatty has one from the factory. I have honestly tried to use it many times but it just makes no sense. I LOVE the way it looks, but for function, it just dont make it.
To add it on? Visual? Yes. Useful? No.
JMHO.

Tom Here. It works great when you get used to it, but it takes up a lot of space on the floorboard as well.

Regards,

Why do you want a 1-piecer? No adjustability. In any event, Tejas Thump Cycles makes one.

Here's what I did on my '08 Night Train:
