Quickshift
Hi, has any one tried a quickshift on there RZ500. I've tried a Zeeltronic without to much success.
Feels like there is to much play in the linkages. Would changing to a race pattern be better.
Cheers Ron.

Re: Quickshift
Ron,
Try bypassing the need for a linkage by attaching a lever directly to the shift rod.
You get GP reverse shift and direct feel. I could not go back to a sloppy linkage.

Re: Quickshift
Hi Paul, great idea never thought of that, will definitely give that a go.
Cheers Ron.

Re: Quickshift
I use one on my RZ350 and VTR1000F.
Both have similar linkage as the RD500, but I replaced the stock ball joints with industrial quality without that excessive play.
I wouldn't like a bike without it any more.

Re: Quickshift
Yep, direct to the source with no fiddly know-it-all middle managers to re-interpret the shift instructions. LOL

Re: Quickshift
Hi,
What quick shifters are recommended please ? I’ll be using a Zeeltronic CDI and YPVS Controller.
How tough will a quick shifter be on the gearbox ?
Thanks.
Cheers

Re: Quickshift
Hi Paul, I'm using the pull Zeeltronic Shifter the problem I was having is too much play in the linkage.
With the Zeeltronic you can adjust the cut out time. I'm going to try the race pattern with the push shifter
when I get these linkages sorted out. Paul's idea is great but I think I'll need rear sets for it to work.
Cheers Ron.
