Heel shifter

VERY nice work Bdog, but I'm with Ring, CJ and the others. 3 things I'll always have on a bike are.....
1) Fairing with tunes
2) Trunk
3) a heel/toe shifter

Heel shifter

Seems like most of you like the heel shifter. I tryed for 2 1/2 yrs now to get use to it..for me..its just wrong..doesn't feel right. I wish I'd like it because its a great feature but just doesn't work for me...I guess its hard to teach an old dog new tricks eh..bdog

Bdog, you know that big emty hollow ft axel??? Now there is a place that needs to be filled. A couple fancy dirks in there would look awesum and stop a lot of dogs from chasing you ever again!

OK Bdog ... nice work as always.

Now the problem, either start making some of these great mods for sale to the rest of us or quit showing off!

[I'm just jealous] ::)

Nice touch Bdog, as usual. You really have the hot rodders touch. Take a machine and change it here and there to make it special.

Well I just got new glasses, same kind as always for 3 bucks. But them little nipples are a far cry from Dirks! Them nipples is kinda small, so how do you know when the bike is happy to see you?

Let me stack up all 3 pair of my new glasses.. Ah OH I see better now!
