Yeah, the linkage looks a little short to me in the pic. Maybe if it were an inch or so longer, it would give a little more leverage. That's just my opinion from looking at the pic though. Do you still have the stock shifter? You could put it back on and go for a ride to make sure it isn't something more than the forwards...thanx,took it for its first ride today,having trouble shifting.dont know if my angle on the control linkage is off,or something else????
ya good call on the linkage,thats what i think it is,too..no original or xtra stock shifter laying around(probly throw out 5 or so)just gonna do the old adjustable wrench on the linkage and try that,make sure it goes throw all the gears and start from there.Yeah, the linkage looks a little short to me in the pic.

ya,i have to bring it out,from the motor and up,start cutting up another shifter and go from there...also look at the angles as well as the leverage, this makes a difference!
