Heel toe shifter
Wanted a heel toe shifter but didn't want to spend $400 on it. This one does the job. Have had it on my bike for a week and had no problems with it. Never had a heel toe shifter, so took some getting use to ut driving. Works great. |

Heal toe shifter
Well made, but not for plus size feet (14) had to add an extension to heal peg otherwise heal was resting on shifter. Road a little over 300 miles yesterday and all worked well . Shifted like my 96 ACE that I’ve had for 26 years. |

Heel to Toe shifter
I forgot to add if you do leave the front shifter off and you will, then you are using the stock shifter to down shift and get into 1 st gear. All I did is hit the front portion of the linkage a few times with a rubber mallet and it moved the linkage over to where I could shift with no problems. |

Heel to Toe shifter
I am really pleased with this heel to toe shifter, I installed it on Friday and went on a 259 mile ride on Saturday, it performed perfectly. Nice chrome what a great deal for $54. I kept the front toe shifter off because I didnt have room for my foot, you won't either unless your a little person. I noticed that the center bolt that holds the shifter on started working it's way loose from shifting up & down so much. I will try some Red Lock tight and not torque it too much so it will stay in place. Good Job "Wing Stuff" |

Great for the Money!
I missed the heel toe on my Harley, so when I added the Kuryakyn drop mount mini floor boards, this was a must have. Its built solid. The ring around the shift peg is solid. The pegs themselves are nice, but wish they were just a bit wider. Cons: Can't use the front peg that comes in the kit, unless you have a size 7 shoe. There was no way my foot was on the board with both shifters installed. Removed the front one. More foot room now, but only half the front peg is available for down shifting. So does it work? Yes. Shifting is smooth, and I don't have the 1st gear issue some have reported. Is it perfect?? No, but its $50.00.... I can live with it. |

Worthless
Purchased this for my wife's F6B. She wears a size 7 and can barely fit her shoe between the pegs. She didn't feel safe with it on so I removed it after one ride. Shifting is clunky with it. Now it sits collecting dust. I have the Kuryakyn floorboard and shifter combo. Works much better. |

Great Product, Great Price!
I absolutely love this piece! It looks great and functions very well. The only negative thing I can say is that you have to double shift into first gear most times. For some reason, first gear is a little tricky but I have just made the habit of pressing down twice. |

Works well with mini floorboards.
After adding mini floorboards to my 2009 Goldwing, I found that it was difficult to get my toe under the stock toe shifter. After adding this Heel/Toe Shifter, shifting was a bit easier, but it became much easier when I removed the toe piece. Now, I downshift with the stock shifter peg and upshift with my heel. I just rode from San Diego to WingDing 38 in Billings and it worked great. An extra benefit is that a naturally occurring, stronger heel shift helps to eliminate that frequently missed, weak shift from 1st to 2nd. I highly recommend this product. |

heel toe shifter
put on my 2013 Goldwing and then took for a ride, it works great, but one of the allen head bolts started to back out so pulled over and retightened down and when doing so head strip out which means the bolts are soft, so be careful tightening down the bolts. the shifter itself works great. |

Perfect Fit
I prefer a heel shift and this fits the bill without breaking the bank. Quality is excellent and installation was simple. I use it with the Kuryakin Mini-Floorboards and it looks great. I considered removing the downshift peg and just using the original downshift to gain room on the board for my huge feet. But, I like the look the way it is and it leaves enough room for comfort the way it is. -Highly Recommended- |
