Hey,
I have an '09 nightster with forward controls. Has anyone seen or know of a heel / toe shifter that will fit. The dealers have not heard of one and my eyes are going blurry looking through the web, hoping this might be faster.
Thanks,
the season is just around the corner and the salt should be off the road soon then it's time to make some noise.
I really wasn't being a harda$$, just pointing a newbie in the right direction so that they learn to use the tools on the forum to find info that's already been asked dozens of times.
Many folks here do nice write-ups on their problems and projects, but you can't expect them to retype their posts every time someone asks the same question for the 100th time.

I contacted Rob (search heal/toe shifter on here) about the one he built for his and asked if he could build one for mine. I ride an 883lo and I installed forwards on it about a year ago. He was most gracious and did build me one(of course, it was not free). I put it on the night it came in. The next day I rode about 125 miles and must say, how did I ever live without this. It is truely amazing. I really think he should try to patent this and then sell it to some one to mass produce. I can't see me ever going back to a standard shift now. It only took one ride through town to get used to it. I gotta give much love to Rob for this. You should contact him. He builds a quality product and the price is not too hard on the wallet at all for what you are getting. A plus to it all is that he stays in contact with you letting you know the progress of everything and sends complete detailed instructions for the install. It only took about two weeks from me paying him to having it on my bike.
