Re-Micks

Was heading back from the lot tonight... on the highway i went to click down and i had no shifter... so i was like wtf... look down and its sparking off the ground.... so i pull over and was wondering what i was going to do.... so i put my last zip-tie to use... to hold it on... was a fun ride home... just thought i would share...

-GoBLIN-

was the pedal sparking off the ground or was it the shift rod? I used to have the shift rod come loose on my r1 all the time. Best fix is a short nut with a nylon locking bolt cause the nylon washer on the inside will keep it from slipping from the engine vibration

the whole shift linkage was flopping around... i laughed and pulled over and droped it on its side so i could look at it

same thing happened with me while i was on the highway heading from Las Vegas to Tucson on my RR. i just moved my foot and didn't feel it and it was just hanging. fortunately the bolt that holds it was still on the gearshift and i had my hex wrenches with me. i was in the middle of nowhere in the desert.

Trachito

skitching has nothing to do with ur gearshift. u might need ur peg if u step back up versus supermanning up but u could skitch all year long without a gearshift. u may have just opened up a can of worms, dude. HA HA

potassium26

thats what im saying i use my peg to get back up on the bike.if my peg is bout to fall off then i think it does have something to do with it

PLAYA-P

That avatar was questionable before this whole "skitch" thing

theguy386

hahaha, but skitching is the **** these days

I saw it in biker boyz so it MUST be cool

Trachito

yeah but u said ur gearshift is what fell off. how's the gixxer set up? u need a gearshift for the footpeg to hold in place or something? cuz if my gearshift falls off, my footpeg is still on there solid.

Trachito

i know its a cheesey trick but it looks cool to me, especially when u go low and in circles with just ur throttle hand.

potassium26

what is it a crime to have a pick of MY BIKE on its 12v bar.i never said i did it my self.so find somthing else to bitch about

theguy386

I like doing those

potassium26

Trachito
