Custom Shift Linkage
I am re-styling my Road King and want a custom shifter linkage. Can anyone point me to a company that makes true custom linkage?

Make sure they use good quality heim joints( I think that's what they call em). I've used some real cheap joints and they are too loose and flimsy. With that said, with all the products available out there, the HD linkages are comparably priced and the joints are nice and tight, so I went with them.

Are you talking about a true, one-of-a-kind linkage? IOW, you have a picture of something and you want someone to make the linkage?

I want something Old Skool and different and perhaps a 1 off but not necessarily. I don't have the tools or skills to work metal. I just want something I won't see on every other bike. When I see it I will know.

Draw something you have in mind with all the dimensions & take it to your local machine shop. Make sure you're sitting down when they give you a quote, unless money isn't an issue. If you're into chrome, mo money. Good luck
