I use an extended heel shifter with both the toe and heel shifters being set low so it doesn’t take much effort to move my foot forward or rearward to tap down. Gives me the whole board for my foot to sit as well.

I am exhausted. I read through this entire thread. Not sure why. There were some funny comments, I liked those. I am a veteran. I don't expect anything in return for my service. In fact some days I don't even want to admit that I am a veteran. (please, it's personal don't pick at it) I have purchased many new vehicles in my life. One thing is a guarantee, like death and taxes, dealers are in business to make money period. I actually bought a car off a dealer who actually fully admitted, their prices were higher than most dealerships. Why did I buy from them? Because they sold me the car with only one add-on (doc fee). No warranty no undercoating no this or that. It was the most pleasurable dealership experience I ever had. When I asked if they could do any better, the sales person said that's the price and that if I wanted to buy somewhere else I was welcome to. That takes *****. They sell the most of their brand ( I a not going to name it) in the state. Why, because they are up front about their prices. I wish all dealerships were like them.

From -
Did I get screwed to no you didn't - to we're all a bunch of meanies - to heel shifters - to heal shifters

what about oil?

what kind of oil should you use with a heel shifter? It doesn't matter what oil you use with a heal shifter

New York dogs are better than Chicago dogs

What oil should you use to break in?

Some people used to claim cvo came with syn from factory, so it is ok to break in with syn.

I feel the same way about being a veteran, Il wear a hat with the flag on it I have a flag patch on my riding jacket but no stickers on the car no license plate saying "Iraqi freedom vet" etc. a vet discount is great if its offered but I don't expect it or ask for it...when I bought my first Harley way back in 2005 there was no haggling at the dealer. At the time their take was "If you don't buy it someone else will, probably in a matter of hours..."

Chuck Norris removed his toe shifter and only uses a heel shifter.
