There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Shift linkage
Hey Jarvis - Full disclosure - I don't have a manual shift, just going by the diagram.
Appears as though the shift pedal itself just rotates around that bushing with no other detents or springs external to the transmission. It's at-rest position, then, is dictated by the length of the shift linkage. Looking at the diagram, the shift linkage rod - item 21 - appears to be adjustable. If you make it longer, it should rotate the assembly CW and thus raise the at-rest position of the toe pedal. But give it a good look-see yourself.

I agree. Loosen the jam nuts on 21 and turn the rod to raise or lower the shift lever. This system is used on motorcycles where the shift lever doesn't mount directly to the input shaft. If you can't get enough adjustment with the rod #24 can be removed from the shaft and rotated a spline distance on the shaft in the needed direction.

Thanks for the replies. I actually had tried that a little, but obviously didn't try hard enough. The darn red loctite on the bolt made it really-really-really hard to get off. I will try the linkage again and if that doesn't get the results, I will try the spline. BTW, hopefully will be installing sway bar late today or tomorrow. Now I got to figure out the seat issue (to close to handlebars).
Thanks again. Will let y'all know the results.
