Default Boot -- Shifter lever on a Raptor

Hi guys,
What is possible to do to a shifter lever on a raptor , besides adjusting it all the way, to be comfortable with MX boots in shifting action.
is there any aftermarket to solve this?

On my Banshee, i had the same problem but i think that the banshee has more room for the feet that the raptor.

Any input will be appreciated!

You can rotate the lever one notch on the shift shaft too (if you haven't already)

Stick it in a vise and bend it...

Cutting torch, heat, bend to fit...

Numerous companies make aftermarket shifters. IMS makes a good shifter, though it's expensive. Moose makes shifters that are hinged and sprung to move and avoid breaking in an impact. Yamaha even makes a GYT-R shifter. I removed my stocker as soon as I could, I hated that bulky linkage. My shift action is much better know with the Roll Design shifter.

I have several of the shifters and the only one I have felt that worked the best with adjusting is the stock one. The others only can go on one time because you cant adjust the aftermaket ones, IMS, Prodesign because either way you go you will hit the frame or the case saver. I dont wear boots and probably will regret it someday.....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
