    shifter

    i have found that the shifter is too close to the foot rest
    i wear boots not enough space to shift comfortably'
    can i move the rest or get a longer shifter.

      Jasons Bigfoot Gear Change Lever

      Jasons Bigfoot Gear Change Lever - Do you have feet Larger than the guy that designed the gear lever on your XS ? This extended gear lever for the XS650 will fit better and also improves shifting ! Includes rubber. Fits: 1970-84 650's


      Part #19-6502 $12.00 USD EA.
      Of course you can also reposition the shifter lever clockwise or CCW on the shift shaft to allow more room for your foot under it, depending on what angle you want your foot/toes to be at and still be able to pull up on the lever without overflexing your foot!

              xj1100 , XS, same lever.
              So...grandma, what big feet you have

              Most of the time I wear steel toe work boots, size 10.
              No problems.

                      No

                      Reg shifter is just fine for me.
