    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

It was actually cracked so I simply took a wire wheel, cleaned the crack, and lightly welded it, then grinded the weld flush, taped off the peg, and peg, took my drill and bit and made 3 industrial divots and painted it flat black, then after the shifter was totally dried, I then redrilled the divots and reinstalled it onto the motorcycle, and then took a new bolt and and tightened it down. Hope that u enjoy my lil styling!

duct tape was for covering up the pieces not wanted messedwith while welding and painting I have the rubber shift peg on there
 
Is it just my eyes, or, are you missing the engine mount bolt ahead of the shifter? Right under the stator cover.

Shifter looks good.
