Default GREAT MOD - US Navy Linkage

Available on Ebay, maybe the dude has a website too....not sure.

He makes military themed shift linkages by hand, and sells them for reasonable prices...just got mine, amazing craftsmanship and turnaround time was amazing!!

He advised me he is working on prototypes for hard bag latches.

Just thought I'd share...easy install for touring bikes....comes right out of the wrapping same length as the stock, no adjustment to the shifter pegs needed after install.

Peace

I admit, I was a bit taken back by the price...but its heavy, well-made, chrome and iron....VERY nice. I am not sorry I paid for it.

Thumbs up Re: Shift Linkage...

Hey Shipmate,
I too ordered a custom shift linkage for my 2012 SG... I had them do POPS & YAYA for me. I love it, and it's not some cookie cutter that everyone has. I didn't even blink an eye at the $149.00 bucks, it's one of a kind just for you or for me in this case. I'll try and post a pic later.

Thanks for posting this. I just saw these on eBay this morning and was wondering about the quality. This is going on the Xmas list.
