Anyone know who carries shifters that are at least 10mm longer than the stock one on my te510, I am a size 12 boot and it's difficult to shift with my existing one, any leads will help, thanks.
I was on hammerhead earlier and they don't have a Husqvarna section, unless I read it wrong. Are their other bike shifters that will fit onto the husky? I know that KTMs wont they have a really off the wall system on there bikes.
Uptite racing has one that fits at +10 mm. Was on one of mh first rides of the year and I think I have overdone it with a plus 20 mm and size 11 boots. I also got the 3/4" width one and am wondering if I shouldn't have went 1 1/4" as the top of my riding boot is fairly round.
I went with the Hammerhead +20 (I think it was the crf450 model. Yeah, this one: http://www.hdmoto.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=ST20W). I wear a size 12. Still not perfect, IMHO, but definitely better than stock. I also used an RFX shifter since it was cheap at the time ($17 delivered), so I could leave my original shifter stock.
The crf450 model one will fit, and when you say it isn't perfect do you mean you still have trouble shifting? I just had the catches in neutral I get sometimes. Im wondering if the moose shifters for the Jap bikes work, anyone know if they mount on stock huskys
Yeah, I would still have liked a little more room to get under it. I ended up with 3 different things to help. The +20 tip, 5mm lowered footpegs (very little difference, really), and I bought Sidi Crossfire TA's which have a lower toe box than the Alpinestar Tech 3 boots that I was using. Love the feel of the boots, apart from the lower toe box, so I was happy with that regardless. It would have been great if I could've raised the shifter a spline, but even one spline meant the shifter was hitting the chain when upshifting. Overall, I only have the occasional accidental neutral now. It used to happen quite a bit and cost me a couple spills.
I love the Sidi Crossfire boots. I dumped the other day, pretty nasty spill and I told myself it was finally time to order a new one but it seems like the stock shifter has an odd bend to in. Did you mount that +20 tip onto that rfx shifter, and what's their website. Ill have to keep shopping around.
Yeah, the +20 went on to the rfx shifter. I had to drill it slightly. I just checked and I made a mistake about the price. It was £17. I had ordered a Renthal 12t front sprocket earlier and they had free shipping worldwide, so that came to around $17. When I ordered the shifter a couple of weeks later, the shipping was around £5. Both were from DirtBikeBitz.com. Here's the shifter (price has gone up a bit): http://www.dirtbikebitz.com/rfx-gear-lever-pedals-husqvarna-p-8267.html
You're welcome. Yes, they are UK based. I was very happy dealing with them. My parts arrived very quickly and hassle-free.
Hi guys I'm used to using my TCX Street Boots on my 2004 Husky 450 SMR, however it is all worn out now and I recently bought a size 8 Fly Racing Maverik Boots (cuz I was on a tight budget, that's why) now I cannot shift at all. Was wondering if the rfx shifter or any shifter that is extendable adjustable etc would be the way to go. Any advice?
I have the Maverik Boots as well, although mine are a size 12. Like I said I still have the stock shifter on my 09 te510 and I get the occasional crummy shift, or catch in neutral. I'm probably gona order the +20mm tip from hammerhead, drill out the rivet and hope for the best. Don't know if I helped you any but that's my plan. I can deal with the stock shifter and my boots, but I figured why not make it more convenient.
