I had the cover off to access the gear selector sensor. I did everything at the same time to make it easier. Not sure about the brace but the bars come off pretty easy I'd say.
Looks ready to go.. now we are waiting for you to pick the ride date for our slow exploring ride on the firm and shady trails at Richloam. Any Saturday or Sunday when you are available, and feel the weather is suitable. Please add a comment here with your thoughts, much appreciated:
Getting closer to that. Cooler and drier preferred.
Well I had an experience years ago on another bike where I hit a stump with the shifter and it bent the shift shaft requiring the cases be split and the shaft and other parts to be replaced. And I have read that really all bikes share this weakness and since the support is offered I figured it is cheap insurance. If the bike is used only on the street, most likely would be overkill to add it.
On the CT125 the general consensus is the shift support helps prevent missed shifts. There's quite a lot of flex in these shifters. I have one installed on my bike and I definitely felt the difference right away. If you're not missing shifts, there's no real benefit to installing it.
Looking good, have to ask though, is this build for a ride to the shooting range? I only ask because I transport my firearms in a similar box.
Ha ha, wouldn't you like to know!
