Hi team, wanted to provide some feedback on an improvement to the instructions. For the part where you need to remove the small nylon bush off the bottom of the shifter itself, your instructions are to hammer it off. Unfortunately mine broke doing it that way. I’ve subsequently found that if you take the shifter out and sit the nylon bush in boiling water for 5 mins, it easily can be pulled off by hand (with a cloth for grip). Thought I’d share the feedback.

Can I replace the knob without changing the short shifter?

Hi, unfortunately the shift knob fits on our shift lever and will not fit the slip-design on the VN. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Wouldn’t recommend using a wrench and hammer to remove the bottom bushing. Broke mine during the process and had to order the entire shifter bracket. Boomba should supply one with the kit

Yep me too! But heating with boiling water allowed mine to easily slip off.

Just an update. One week later my spare shifter bracket came in so I used hot water to help soften up the bottom bushing and it was a lot easier this time. The only thing I don’t like is that 2nd and 4th gear don’t engage as easy or smooth. I have to shift slightly harder and faster out of 1st and 3rd so it fully engages. I’m thinking it’s the shift linkage I had to adjust where I installed the boomba transmission shifter adapter.

@@thomascastillo9754 glad the hot water method worked. Did you remove the little ring on the bottom of the shifter itself? If you don’t remove that you can have problems getting into some gears. It’s a step on the Boomba shift adapter instructions.

@@joshlambert9100 yeah the rubber bump stop. I installed the new shifter and it doesn’t come with the rings but my 2nd gear is non existent from 1st to 2nd while driving. Had to take off from 2nd gear and only engages from 3rd to 2nd while down shifting. I’m going to get a better look at it in the morning. feels like its hitting something before it’s able to engage.

does this make any improvement in shifter throws in r spec models?
@BoombaRacing2 жыл бұрын
Hi! The amount of throw reduction with our short throw shifter is significantly more than that of the OEM R-Spec Shifter. This would be a quite good upgrade! Thanks for your interest!

Did it myself. Wasn’t too bad. The video makes it look scarier than it actually is :)
