• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Any good ideas on how to raise the shifter? I normally run my shifter with the bottom edge aligned with the top surface of my footpeg. On my 300 it won't raise that far, not even close without hitting the Chain. Cut and weld is all I can think of. Any higher than the stock position and there is not enough clearance to click into gear. On my supermoto with a steel shifter I was able to grind some away but I don't think that is an option with this shifter. Cam.
 
How hot do you get them? Is Mapp gas enough or would I need oxy/acet. Ideally I would bend it about up about 1/2". Cam.
 
Love them or hate them but ever since I put Pivot Pegz on starting a couple bikes back I don't seem to have issues anymore with shifter and brake lever height. And yeah, they are a bit pricey.
 
Just put a ring spanner on it and pull about as hard as you can with your weak(left?) hand in the direction you want it to go then heat with mapp gas till it moves .
I straightend a gasgas gear shift that was bent 270 facing backwards past the peg the same way
