executed my first modification today .. went pretty well!!
actually i was forced into it when i fell over :'(
so yup, fixed my toe shifter. had to drill through the shifter arm, get a bolt, backing nut, washers, and capping nut. slid the old rubber sleeve off the old toe shift (that was a pain) and slid it on to the bolt.
had some problems with the bolt hitting the shift rod, but it might have been because i had over shortened the shift rod itself when re mounting. problem seemed to resolve itself with remounting and adjusting that length.
couldn't resist some glamour shots using my dad's camera
messing with the white balance
my helper for the repair
looking forward to some REAL mods. soon ! wanna get new springs, fork oil, possibly some rearsets, chopped exhaust.... etc etc etc
