Default shift rod linkage for a Deluxe
Has anyone ever seen a shift rod that spells out "Deluxe". Only one ive ever seen like that is for a road king. Sure would look sweet on a Deluxe I think.

what im wanting is for the linkage to look just like the front fender badge, not an engraved bar. I want it cut out in the deluxe letters.

That would be sweet but if you ever plan on going with Samson duals, save your money. You've got to use their bent shift linkage with the duals.

Have you thought of getting another Deluxe fender emblem and grafting it on to the linkage you need?
