New Shift Linkage

Sadly, my winter projects for the Sportster are still far from complete.

Continuing my trend of making unplanned, non-essential changes to my Sportster when more serious tasks are required to get it running for Spring... I decided to change my shift linkage when I ran across an interesting one on eBay.

Here is a shot of the stock shift linkage.  I've always found it boring but never liked the MoCo's options and very few people make custom linkages for Sportsters.

Luckily, I found this one eBay and it was a really good deal so I couldn't pass it up.  You can see it here side-by-side with the stock linkage.

I polished up the stock heim joints with my Dremel and reinstalled it.  I really like the way it turned out.
