What's up peeps? I'm considering converting to GP shift (1-up / 5 down) on my M821. Have any of you guys done this? I'm looking for general opinions and tips on making the conversion.

Sorry for the bump, but I don't see anything else on the subject.
I switched the setup so that it's reverse now, but it's not ideal. I can't get the shifter as low as I'd like without binding.
I haven't seen an aftermarket reverse shifter for it.
Anyone?

The mount is likely the same as. Any other 4 valve motor minus panigale

I'm not sure though. I tried to swap the shifter from my S2R1000 and it hit the rearset... |

Yes, I tried to swap the SSR reverse shifter I installed on my S2R1000 and it touches the where the rearset mounts to the frame. Are you referring to the shifter that has a bend in it to give it some clearance? |

I see your issue now. Try a longer shift rod and see if you can get it to work that way

Maybe, I'll have to check the length of my existing one when I get home. This might work. |

That's a no go. Length of that shifter is 4 1/4". Spline to closest point of contact is 4". I think the off set ones might work. $100 bucks though... |

The off set looked pretty extreme.

I guess it depends on how everyone is measuring. Is it 4 1/4 oal or 4 1/4 center of spline to toe peg? Hope you find some thing. |
