#233345 MitchellNJ (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 331 Toe Shifter - again 2 Years, 3 Months ago   Looking for a toe shifter for a 2007 R*MS. The threads on mine have apparently worn smooth. For now, I've flipped the rear to the front but the spoon shaped piece just isn't working. There seems to be zero aftermarket options which would seem simple enough to fabricate. Anyone who has switched to forward controls and has a shifter laying around, I'm interested. To any of the machinists out there, are the threads something that can be fixed? Can I take it somewhere? Any other tricks to get it working would be appreciated also.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #233357 moreland4 (User) Chrome ain't for sissies Gold Boarder Posts: 835 Re:Toe Shifter - again 2 Years, 3 Months ago   MitchellNJ...I have a stock heel/toe shifter from an '04 Road Star you can have for the cost of S&H.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #233372 MitchellNJ (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 331 Re:Toe Shifter - again 2 Years, 3 Months ago   I would jump on that. Unfortunately it's the prior design. I don't know why they felt the need to change that in 2006. Thanks.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #233378 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride!

Let me know- Luke PM sent. Curt, I was thinking that. Then I could go to the single toe shifter if I wanted.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #233468 hrdbrgn (User) Restore America Expert Boarder Posts: 505 Re:Toe Shifter - again 2 Years, 3 Months ago   I ran across a web site that has about every used part you can think of for a roadie check it out...Pinwall cycle parts its like a salvage yard for bikes just an idea great prices too   Logged     Democracy is two wolves and a small lamb voting on whats for dinner.

To all you super smart people out there. What's the name of the connection of the shifter to the bike? The same one that holds the two pieces together, the same one that the clutch uses? The closest I can come is some sort of sprocket looking, compression fitted, toothed post thingy. But I know that's not the real name. I'm going to see if someone can re-tool the teeth in the old shifter either for a backup or spare for anyone else who wears theirs out. Never mind. I just got it. It's a splined coupler.   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/11/02 19:11 By MitchellNJ.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #234946 warstar (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 253 Re:Toe Shifter - again 2 Years, 3 Months ago   Glad I could help... Compression fit tooth-post thingies are essential. LOL NOTE to the forum:: MITCHELL NJ is very cool, I priced him the shifter that he needed...added 6 bucks for shipping, and he rounded up to the next 10 dollar increment! (to cover any paypal withdrawel fees) I thought that was VERY COOL- I was empressed! Another reason Roadstar forum rocks...good people. -Luke   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
