Doode, make a new post for the BBTB. I'd be in for a 70MM if it's a good price and supports cruise.
Got the shifter about an hour ago...
It was very well packaged... in a shitload of bubble-wrap! & it's fvckin' awesome!! Col man, you are truly brilliant!! & the engraving looks great too!
Anyway, couldn't wait 'til the weekend so I ducked out of the office for my "lunch break"...
Old shifter out & new one installed in no more than 10 minutes!
Took it for a spin & I must admit, at first, it felt a bit weird... I swear you barely have to move the thing to shift between gears! Slick as! It didn't take long for me to warm to the new shift movement though! NIIIIIIIICE! :twisted:
Very happy man! laugh.gif

Mang, I only said that I'm thinking of it for my next project, but as before I'll make mine first so I know what I'm doing with it before I do more of them. I'll put up a new post when I actually get started on 1.

I'm glad you're happy with it Tim.
The 1s going to US are packed diff, they are actualy in a red plastic case designed for wine bottles, so should be even better protected.
1 :?: 4 ya. Was there a burr around the hole in the pin at the bottom of the stick (the 1 the clip goes through to hold the linkage on) :?: That was 1 of the last things I did, & I can't remember if I took the burr off after drilling the hole. If you other guys find a burr on there, just knock it off with a file or some emery/sand paper, OK oops.gif
