Picked up my power commander from the postal depot . I missed the delivery man and customs snared it on the way into the country ...charged an extra 65euro . That took the good out of it.

Kneedraggers are a great bunch to deal with... That was the happy part....Now the sad

Riding through an intersection , coming into heavy traffic , slowing down for a roundabout , cars everywhere , braking and going to change gear........... Wheres the fu**ing gear shift..

Fell off .. just hanging by the linkage , had to ride home stuck in top gear...Try it sometime...

I thought this problem was maybe only a USA problem but apparently not.. Check yours.... nuff said.. that was the sad part .

Got some Locktite , gear shift and idle screw are gonna get it now.....

Uhhmm, me too. Had the same thing happen to me a couple years ago after putting on my after market rearsets.

Been there... but I stopped and pulled out my handy-dandy Tool Kit!
Then rode home, where I made a permanent fix

Same here. I thought my foot was on the wrong peg or something.....where the bleep is the shifter?? It's a good thing the linkage keeps it hanging.

Had the shifter drop on me as well - fter I lowered the shifter and pegs.

The cool thing about the busa is that you can ride it home in high gear if you need to.....
