I left the toe shifter where it was, hadn't been bothered by it. Didn't even notice 'till you said something.

You wouldn't believe the difference in the comfort level with the toe shifter moved an additional 1-inch outboard.

I need to make a correction. I did move it in. I don't mind the extra room I have when I'm not shifting. I don't really mind swinging my foot.

Hi Guys, still loving the 05 RKC here, but chilly and rain as of late. Have a leak from the primary cover gasket after 4 years, but other than that and a cotter pin in the rear tire there has been no trouble.

Rented an 09 Geezer Glide while at the beach and tunes where the only thing I liked better about it. Might have to break down and do some windshield mount after market thing or ? Has anyone done that and can pass on info?

Thanks, HAG1

Haven't done it, but I've SEEN it done.

My opinion:
It ruins the look of the bike.
Makes the bike look like you're a Geezer wannabe.
