Removing Heel shifter,
I want to remove the heel shifter on my 06 RK Custom and wanting to know if anyone makes a cap to put on the end of the shaft, or should i just move the toe shifter to the spot where the heel shifter was? Thanks.

RE: Removing Heel shifter,
HD has one, lots of aftermarkets make them with different designs. I used to have a cap and sent it to anubisss here on the forum. I don't use a cap anymore, I just cut a piece of black rubber hose (like washer machine hoses) and put it on the inside of the shifter and moved it all the way out to the edge. I found this easier to getat with my foot.

RE: Removing Heel shifter,
I added floorboard spacers to move my boards out 3/4"
Then I installed a spacer on the shifter shaft after I removed the heel shifter. This puts the shifter in a perfect position for me.
Here is a pic.
I found the spacer on Ebay for arounf $20.
