I run a real foot clutch. I much prefer it. But for those who want the added security of not needing to use your foot to clutch have at it.

Hello Drew. Thanks for your input. I've owned a few bike with foot clutches and they are fun. Our products are designed for riders that don't feel comfortable using a foot clutch, but want the fun of a jockey shift. We also sell a lot of kits to riders with limited use of their left leg or no left leg at all. We're helping them get back on the road. Chip

Cool, welcome to H-D Forum. Interesting product for sure. Man, stop & go slow traffic looks like it would be a handful. If I were you folks, I'd also offer the more traditional version of Jokey & Tank Shifts as well. That way you could better meet the needs of many more peoples shifting options.

Just a thought, best wishes with your products

Hello PanHeadRich, Thanks for the reply. We thought about offering a traditional jockey shift with a foot clutch, but that segment of the market is already pretty well covered. We're also offering a vintage police solo saddle kit in a few weeks along with more products every few months. Thanks, Chip

I understand, and had not thought of the limited use of legs. That is very cool. I would imagine there are quite a few people whom are seeking such and option. Trying to expand my mind here.
