Happy and sad

[bigdr]

Picked up my power commander from the postal depot . I missed the delivery man and customs snared it on the way into the country ...charged an extra 65euro . That took the good out of it.

Kneedraggers are a great bunch to deal with... That was the happy part....Now the sad

Riding through an intersection , coming into heavy traffic , slowing down for a roundabout , cars everywhere , braking and going to change gear........... Wheres the fu**ing gear shift..

Fell off .. just hanging by the linkage , had to ride home stuck in top gear...Try it sometime...

I thought this problem was maybe only a USA problem but apparently not.. Check yours.... nuff said.. that was the sad part .

Got some Locktite , gear shift and idle screw are gonna get it now.....

Uhhmm, me too. Had the same thing happen to me a couple years ago after putting on my after market rearsets.

Been there... but I stopped and pulled out my handy-dandy Tool Kit!
Then rode home, where I made a permanent fix

fun stuff. Had the shift linkage on my '84 1000 break 50 miles from anything. I road home in 3rd gear.

Same here. I thought my foot was on the wrong peg or something.....where the bleep is the shifter?? It's a good thing the linkage keeps it hanging.

Had the shifter drop on me as well - fter I lowered the shifter and pegs.

The cool thing about the busa is that you can ride it home in high gear if you need to.....

lol lowered my old GSXR600 and I didnt tighten mine enough either. I was riding around and playing with my new resets when I noticed, like you I couldn't shift. 1st gear but only 5 miles away from home, was I #$#%$ED off
