    In general, I am very happy with the ergos on my '09 TXC250. I am around 6 feet tall, so the bike seems to fit me well. The only complaint that I have is that the shift lever is too short for my size 10 boots.

    I have searched this forum and TT, and I have done a general Google search and have come to the conclusion that no one offers an aftermarket shifter for Husky's (like Hammerhead Designs e.g.).

    Do any of the product sponsers on this site have any plans to come up with a longer aftermarket shifter? :)

    Thanks F1ED--it looks like it will fit my '09. I went out to the garage and checked the footpeg to shifter distance on another bike and it looks like the Husky's is about 10mm shorter. So--the Zip Ty shifter tip should be right on the money!

    I'm curious if anyone else has this issue, and if they have tried the Zip Ty shifter tip.

    I bought the Zip Ty a couple months ago and finally got around to installing it 2 weeks ago. I still haven't had time to ride yet, but I think it's definitely better. I have an 08 TE250 for reference.

    How did you remove the stock pin? From the pics it looks like the Zip Ty installs with a new pin which is just pressed in.
