adjustable shift lever

Post by Henzilla »

GF has a short reach from peg to shift lever on her 1150R, some of her boots with taller heels places the lever nearer her toes ,making shifting difficult without moving foot forward every time, see that Touratech has a GS adjustable lever. wondering if anyone has dealt with this problem or this GS option?

I have the adjustable levers on my GS and RT because I have the opposite problem of BIGFOOT.

I also have small feet male size 8. I ride with the shift lever adapters that make them longer and a little thicker. I think they came from A&s cycles they just press on. On other bikes I have had the lever cut and welded back together at about 1" shorter. Cheap, not very pretty, but very effective.

I just remembered I had a set of those for another R bike I had. Going to try that first, then maybe the altering or Touratech GS lever to see if it fits
Thanks
