⌛ Shift Lever Extension

Has anyone ever added an extension to their bike shift level to make it easier to shift, especially the toe end? I want to do that, too hard to make contact and my ankle injury will not facilitate a heal down solution. Thanks

 

word correction, heel, not heal. One of the problems is the heel lever is too close to the bike and I don't want to take a chance bending it. By extension I mean the arm that comes across that you press, not the lever.

Take it down to Fastway machine shop, dwn by the airport, they'll fix ya right up.

 

Thanks Mark, will give that a shot.

I wonder how others with new bikes avoid the 2-6 month wait with no registration or plate?

 

Maybe keep the sales receipt with you and hang a sign saying "waiting for registration" on your rear fender.

 

Like so many locals we hung a "For Registration" sign on the back. Cardboard didn't stand up to the rain very well so we bought a plastic one. Looked much nicer on a new bike.

 

That should be an easy fix with a little steel and a welding machine

 

before I wrecked mine (sober in my own garden) the original plate got lost and I made a "For Registration" one on it. Advantage, they don't know what to write on a ticket for wrong parking anymore. Just keep walking when you come back to your bike and find a safe place to watch.

 

Just use a piece of cardboard with the "for registration" written on it.
And then take a picture of it with your cellphone camera.
If you get pulled over or stopped, and they complain, then just show them that picture.

That should do it.
