Big feet, short shifters

(1/3) > >>

Mudshark:
Size 13 MX boots don't fit too well between the foot peg and the shift lever on
most off road / MX bikes  :-(
I have lifted it, which helps a bit but now I have to lift my foot off the peg to
down shift... that sucks.
Hammerhead sells longer shift levers but they are pretty expensive, do any of you
guys know of someone else that makes / sells longer shifters?
I might have to get two MSR levers and cut an inch out of one and have it welded
into the other to make it longer .... not sure how strong that would be though.... 

Danger4u2:
Same problem size 12.

Spider:
My bike came with an IMS shifter and I have no problems with a size 11 with limited ankle movement do to a previous injury.

Johnniespeed:
I use a modified Moose shifter, the stock shifter doesnt work well with my boots and my feet are only 9.5/43.  John

Mudshark:
Thanks for the input guys.
I'll take a look into the IMS shifters, it could be that they are  bit
longer...
