I think you need to stick a bit of gaffer tape on the fuel tank just cos it looks so just damn cool

Looks like those Kliktronic guys are onto something there, how much was your conversion if I may ask?

Maybe if you used a bent stick that was positioned closer the the bars then it would resemble a car's gearstick- making a familiar presence for the cage drivers having a mid-life crisis.

UWL - the Kliktronic is a device devised out of necessity. Bob's son suffered a horrendous crash and injury leaving him paralysed from the waist down. Bob and Keith thought up the Kliktronic to soolve his particular gearchange problem and it snowballed from there.
The device costs around £350 which sounds like a lot but is what some people pay for a can for crying out loud! I pay less than that because i dont pay vat due it being a conversion for a disabled rider. They also offer the device at around a hundred quid off if its bought through the NABD. the NABD will even give a grant if youve just injured yourself and youre buying the device to get back on the road. Keith and Bob will do one completely free supply and fitting job per year to anyone through the NABD who seems like a deserving case.
I cant stress enough what a fantastic gadget this is or what top blokes Boband Keith are. They told me yesterday that some bastard in the states has ripped off the idea and is marketing below their price. Bastards. they featured in fast bikes recently having kliked up a fazer thou owned by the mag.
this gizmo is not just for disabled people like me - it is a fast changer that ALWAYS moves the lever the same amount per button press - this means never missing a gear if the device is fitted properly. I have only ever had trouble with my triumph and that im afraid is down to the gearbox and not the changer.
