i've been watching that second one you have posted since it was listed. i've got the same shifter on my cycle, and love it, i paid $155 for mine but it came with everything, both sides, mounts and all!! i thought that was expensive at the time but after seeing what this one's at, i think i got a deal!!

mine came with the Iso-wing foot peg, and the mounting hardware to bolt it on the cycle. all i had to do it remove my old OEM and bolt on the new, hook up the shifter linkage, then ride!! there are two bolts that mount it to the frame, i had everything but those two bolts.

Nothing that I can see, it is complete without instructions, but easy to install. The first Kuryakyn heel/toe shifter I purchased was in '02 for $83.00 and shipping. I have since bought 3 more, on for $49.00 for Pinwall in '06, one on e-bay for $25.00 with one part missing, and the last on from a guy in Waycross, Ga., for $35.00. The last one was complete. I really like these shifters, on the I/S and Tourer. i've been watching that second one you have posted since it was listed. i've got the same shifter on my cycle, and love it, i paid $155 for mine but it came with everything, both sides, mounts and all!! i thought that was expensive at the time but after seeing what this one's at, i think i got a deal!!  I at first thought that was a repost of a pic of my Interstate, until I saw the stand underneath, nice chrome.

With a little trading with the guy who bought it, I'm happy to say that I'll be getting it back to put on my Standard. Great shifter !

I'm not wild about the design on the 1st one but I like that second one.

Who makes the second shifter? Ive never seen that one before. How does it compare to the Rattlebars shifter? I assume it will also work fine on a standard.

I would have to go pretty far back to find the number, it is a four digit number, but I can't recall what it started with. These shifters were made for the Valkyrie and the Goldwing 15's, but the shift linkages were a little different. The Goldwing linkage was an inch or so longer. If you can find one for sale, I think it is worth the buy, but not $150.

I sure would like to get one of those for my 99 I/S. I have Cobra floorboards and have to shift with the side of my foot. My Silverado has the sweetest floorboard set up and wish I could get the same set up for my Valk. I'm probably going to take the Floorboard off the shifter side and go with a Wing instead. If anyone has one they would like to sell, hopefully not for $150. , I'll buy it from you.

I really wanted that kick-shifter. But as soon as it went over 200 bucks, I found out that I didn't really want it as bad as I thought I did.

I was bidding on those baker Airwings,,, sure am glad I did not keep bidding. Can' you get new for about $260 (ish)? If I was gonna pay almost $200 for used I would lay out the extra to get brand shiny new, but then thats just my mentality.

I sold one a couple of months ago on eBay for $280. It was brand new. I briedly fit it to my bike but did not ride with it. My feet are too big to use it. The previous owner never used it either, probably for the same reason.
The $280 buys a pair of new Bridgestones from Dennis Kirk.
That was the same reason why I sold mine. I found the kick shifter too cumbersome with my big feet.
