gremlin1988 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Hey guys and gals I've tried to fit a heel-toe shifter several times to my XVS650A Dragstar Classic (2000) but each one I buy doesn't fit. They bolt on, but you can't shift as the heel part hits as you try and change. All the shifters I've bought are genuine Yamaha shifters, all advertised as 2001+, which leads me to believe that the mounts / frame / something was altered for the 2001 onwards models. Can anyone confirm? Has any-one successfully fitted a heel-toe shifter to a 2000 Classic? Thanks Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noise Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Where abouts does the heel part hit? can you not mill out a section of the heel toe arm thats hitting? Chuck up some pics of the problem mate and will be able to have a better look and come up with some thing. Can you not space it out with some washers or some thing like that?

jimmy Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I think your answer is in the post, all advertised as 2001 onwards. As noise says try getting some machining done if they are not available for the y2k model Maybe these help http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/vstar-650-floor-boards-with-heel-toe-shifter-XVS650-V-STAR-Yamaha-floorboards-/171234559100?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item27de60047c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
