Is that a suicide shifter?!?!

It looks like a clean bike that's worth the money... :thumbup:



...If you can reverse whatever was done with the shifter! :shocked:

Nice ryde...

That it is....one forward four back...now the question would be how you operate the clutch and shift....:yikes: is the clutch on the floor..?? just checked and it isn't so it must be a suicide crossover shift...:yikes::yikes:

Good question. Clutch appears to still be on the left side. Unless its somehow not needed anymore. If you have to clutch with left and shift with right that would be a major negative. Imagine the set up could be removed fairly easy though.

Well..........No !
That's WAY too much money for a 2009 Spyder that you have to make changes to before you can ride it safely.

I'll respectfully disagree just a little bit.
The bike is nicely-optioned, and if the shifter can be easily fixed??? :dontknow:

How about someone contact the seller and ask about that clutch/shifter? opcorn:

 

[Fatcycledaddy]

When you look at that first picture with him on it it sure looks like he is operating the clutch with his left hand and has his right hand crossed over to that shifter

No need for the clutch to shift. They shift like butter without it!
