RE: Gilles Tooling "shiftholder" support bracket
I just happened to stumble across it while looking at other Gilles Tooling products on the net. I'm not sure stabilizing the little bit of flex in the shift rod that the gear shift linkage attachesto will doall that muchtoprevent the occasional mis-shift I get under hard downshiftingbut I'm curious now. I've got one on orderand will throw some feedback out there when I get the chance to play with it.

the shift shaft from flexing under these conditions-when i shift gears it feels alot more
positive-i will warn you that the way it mounts will push your kick-stick out slightly
if you have aftermarket rear-sets it might turn into a bitch to mount-imho,this support
bracket is worth its own weight in gold-i am a 54 rider-29's basically the same thing
what ever you decide-good luck

I didn't either until around 20,000 miles and doing more track days. I'm sure it's my own fault things are worn, I tend to quickly stomp[sm=bounceybounce.gif]through the gears on downshifting if riding at a fast pace and sometimes it now bounces in to a false neutral goingin to second gear. Maybe if I practiced the Jason Pridmore method of loading the gear shifter with a touch of foot pressurejust before shifting I'd be getting less wear & tear!
