Still working great and shifting is still smooth. Again the main reason I did it was so I could shift gears with my boots on.

I was having problems with the tranny sticking in gear in severe heat. I called and found out there were some defective units. I was sent a new one at N/C and it has worked great ever since until I traded the bike.

So they sent you a new linkage?

[Old Ryder]

Yes they did! I called and explained the problem to Don and he had me a new one in 2 days.

So could you tell what was different with the linkage?

Don told me that a production run pressed the bushings to tight. When I took the old one off, it was easy to see that the replacement was much looser and swiveled freely compared to the defective one.

Thanks for the info
