Shift Lever - Need some help here
Posted: Fri Aug 10, 2018 6:52 am
As many of you are aware, the stock shift lever can punch a hole in your side case. I have personally had this happen. See here -->

and fixing with jb weld

I got this shift lever - Hammerhead Designs - it is shaped differently and does not punch my side case (rocky trails seem to smash my shift lever into the side case) It's a different design, see pics. It does not have a sharp corner where the spring loaded shifter tip connects to the actual lever.

But it broke when taking it off to fix my stator....

So CRFS doesn't sell the same one I bought, so I just grabbed another one that looks the same. But it's not the same.


Now I have the point again - and you can see the good hammerhead still hit the case, but did not have the ability to punch a hole.

OK, so where can I find my old shift lever! or one like it!
