    I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but I went to adjust my shift lever up a little. The next increment seems to be a lot higher -- almost an inch at the end-piece. I want like, half an inch.

    I loosened it, pulled it off and then jiggled it back on and it sets to the next detent too high. I tested it like that and I can barely upshift. And, I kept stepping on it and downshifting inadvertantly on the trail. It's too high; the next step down is too low.

    Am I missing something?

    mine is the same. 2010 te250. put aftermarket lever on it and the difference between one spline is too much !

    mine is the same. i wanted to lift the shifter up about 10mm but the next slot lifted it far more. its better higher than stock but i might adjust it down somehow.

    can they machine the splines any thinner than they already are? it's a small increment at the shaft but it translates to much more at the other end. maybe bend the lever in a vise to get the desired height?

    I'm worried bending it will weaken it. It's a cast piece and that's not the strongest way to make something...

    The shift lever is cast steel, isn't it?

    ahhh so it is. i thought it was aluminum. should be easy enough to bend then.
