The bracket on the right side would then go to either rods or a push pull cable.

I did mine like this.

Bit of stainless rod with a thread on one end bent into a Z shape and mounted in a nylon pivot. Threaded a aluminium knob on the top.




Mine used to pull on a rod/crank arrangement, but now I have a cable and it is better.

The other option is paddle-shift, which has its advantages (quite neat, and racy looking) and disadvantages (not very compatible with steering lock, or indicator stalks).

has anyone ever done the electronic shifter? we use them on the bikes for disabled etc

kliktronic

thats what I intend to do eventually whenI build a car, that way push button on the steering wheel

with the ignition cut circuitry you would have full throttle gear shifts just at the push of a button





heavy is good, heavy is reliable, and if it breaks, hit them with it

im not really into the paddle shifts, unless someone can come up with a version that turns with the steering wheel.

I have Kliktronic on mine, not on the road yet though. I also have a manual change,I think the lever moving and changing gear by itself may freak some people out

I have used a set of Proshift paddles mounted to rotate with the steering wheel, this activates a Kliktronic actuator which will be connected to the PC3 to achieve the flat shift kill....if I can get the engine started first though.....

I was just about to ask the same question!

I like the idea of paddle-shift, but I don't like it when both paddles are attached to a linked-rocker with the one bowden cable... i.e. I don't like pulling one and the other moving away from me (and vice-versa). Anyone have any solutions to this before I consider 'stick' exclusively?
