It would be super trick to set it up with a different linkage and run the shifter just like the old tank shift bikes. Less chance of snapping off the shifter shaft if you ever have a accident. I have been modifying bikes for years with that as a primary concern. If I get loaded and wreck, I want the best chance of getting up and riding away after. It's happened a few times and I was lucky I could just wrap the road rash and still get home without a tow truck 👍
Why not just remove the foot part & leave the shaft joining like the stock?
I'm going to leave my clutch lever where it is and fab a tank type shift on the right so you come off the throttle to shift like ol indian chiefs
Just watched all your videos on this and they’ve been a big help. Really want to do one for my shadow but no one makes a kit.
Thanks, much appreciated! Try having a go.
TJ brutal customs makes a kit it's nice too
Looks great buddy can ride really well woth it
Much appreciated Korey.
Trying to be like a old Harley I got one on my old HD trike foot clutch hand shift lever !! Just cool as fook ! But then the whole trike thing is cool as fuk
Great looking bike. I'm trying to do the same to my M50 Suzuki, but there is no kit anywhere. gonna have to fabricate.
Thanks and good luck with your build. Fun to make and to ride
I too making same take shifter on my bobber
Good luck, send me some pictures of your design.
Back to the middle age🤯
Lol
So does this elimate completely foot shifting?
Yes.
I’m tryna do this with my Vulcan 900 lt classic
Good luck! It's a great little project to do. Keep me updated with your progress.
Would u by any chance sell the suicide shifter
I would consider it.
Couldn't find neutral at the end...lol
I solved the problem with adding foot clutch in the end.
@@durbandungeon nice
How long did you have it on three before you had transmission problems ...
Never had any transmission problems at all. In fact it was a pleasure to use.
At least, make a paralel footclutch or extra handclutch, so you can steer with both hands. Still the most dangerous and useless mod you can do on a bike. All that lever comes directly on the axl and bearing. Imagen what force you put on the shifting system. I guess that this was just one day "fun"?
See the follow up video where I made a foot clutch for exactly the reasons you stated. Two hands are definitely required.
Why?........
Because I can!
Durban Dungeon no I mean good work dude,, but go the whole suicide foot clutch as well, but youron to a good idea,, if they could hide the clutch cable, or make internal wiring
@@brunothebold3139 I did end up making a foot operated clutch. It was a much safer option. I think it's on another video in that playlist.
Durban Dungeon thanks mate,, I'll watch it live Ve from oz dude
Do not do it, it is too dangerous.
Already did it, it wasn't. Thanks for caring.
THIS IS FAKE 😒
No, no it isn't.
