    Shift Lever issues

    Don, did that work. I have to twist my ankle to some weird angle to use the shift pedal. I prefer to downshift with the pedal rather than the finger paddle. It seems to be smoother. I would prefer a shift pedal that sticks out an additional inch or so. Especially if anything happens to the...

    Help me Obi-wan

    Ok, I need help from anyone able to help me figure out what I am doing wrong. When I am sitting at a stop and ( this has happened 3 times), I start to accelerate after feeling my way into the friction zone, the bike will suddenly take off. I rotate the throttle past the free play in the cable...
