Hi, Can anybody tell me what it would cost to get a FactoryPro Shift kit to South Africa for a Sixth Gen? My Gear changes are annoyingly notchy. :blink:
Fortunately bikes in South Africa are left hand drives too. lol
Why don't you log onto the Factory Pro site, and go through the order process up to the bit where you confirm it? That should tell you.
Actually I just did exactly that - there's a Sarf Effrican importer (Robimoto)- contact them instead.

Thanks but I must confess it has been replaced by an '08 silver one. Here is a photo of the '06 bike during the 2007 ToyRun in South Africa

Welcome, damn I love that blue and I dont like blue. :cool:
Hi, Yeah I must say it was a striking color and thanks for the compliment. Now I've got a silver one. Not quite as eyecatching.
But a nice bike none the less.

Lapis Blue Metallic. :+1:
Welcome, you'll enjoy the shift kit, I've got one on mine!
Did you switch it, or have someone do it for you?
If you did it, how involved is it?
That was a standard color available in South Africa, and probably elsewhere in some countries.

Look at the cute teddies. Great looking bike. My Dodge truck is the same color. Good luck with the shift kit. I'm sure some one stateside would be willing to ship it out to you if that helps.

Thanks Capt.Bob. I looked at the website of our local importer but it seems they don't have it. I'll see if I can work something out with someone.

What does the shift kit do? Just curious.. Shorter throw on the lever or no clutch shifting?
It is a part, involved with the shifting process, which has been modified to include a small bearing. This replacement part makes shifting smoother and more certain. If you fish around in the technical forums there are a number of photo's showing the installation. I am a mechanical engineer and can confirm that this part will surely assist in smoother shifts. I'll see if I can find the forum and will let you know.

Their website is crap, but the product is first rate! Does exactly what it says it'll do, makes shifting a breeze like a hot knife thru butter, snick, snick, snick!
