First thing I took off, it lasted about 30 minutes, just long enough to ride home from the dealer.

My Ultra came without one so I bought one to try; came off in about a week. I tried but I guess I spent too much time on dirtbikes, motocrossers and trials bikes...

Should have posted I wanted to buy one on the thread...... probably lots of them for sale at much less than what the dealer cost... I guess I'm a slow learner

I like having the heel shifter. Seems a natural method for shifting and does not wear out the toe of your left shoe/boot.
