Folding shift pedal - confirmed fit

[fjmartin]

I had seen that there was a comment in the compatibility thread stating a Honda XR650L shift lever will work. I took some measurements of the current one and spent some time online look things over and decided to order the EMGO 83-88068 shift lever which is for the XR650L. It came today and I can provide some details on the fit.

1) The pedal is about 1/2 longer. I'm a small guy with size 7 shoes and I had no problems during my test ride shifting up or down.


2) The pedal is about 1/2 inch closer to the bike. Again, I had no issues reaching it and didn't even have to change the way I usually shift. I did this test wearing my motocross boots rather than my touring boots as they are super stiff and I generally have more issues finding the shifter. but none.


3) When I had my bike on the center stand I measured how far from the floor to the center of the shifter it was sitting. When I put the new shifter on due to the "grooves" that it slides into on the bike it would either sit 1/2 in above or below that previous position. I decided to go with above as my MX boots are now easier to get under there but I didn't feel like I had to lift up my toes any extra to shift and downshifting also felt the same.

Here is the full picture album of how it looks and the part number details.

Hope this helps someone out!
