Moose Shift Lever

[AinChains]

Has anyone tried it? I bought the MSR aluminum shift lever and stripped it out on the first ride. The stock one bends way to easily. Any recommendations or input is appreciated.

I'm curious too...

Use a stock shifter. Reinforced with some added metal and it will work fine.

Well, mine has.

What stripped? The splines?

Not tight enough maybe?

I have an ITP folding shift lever on my K5 with no problems. I don't think I would go alumium on that because I am known to take plenty of soil samples on a ride.

Yep, the splines stripped. I try not to take many soil samples the last one I took created a 36,000 dollar hospital tab, thank god for insurance.

Soil seems to have a magnetic attraction. I ride, I fall down. Go with steel, the weight difference won't matter and sometimes you can bend it back if it bends to save a ride. Mine was too high or too low so I bent it to the right height.

I have one and no problems-like it better than the stock lever.

I've got the Moose lever and it works great. I would have to tweak the stocker back into position after every ride, but I've had the Moose lever for about 6 months without it bending at all. :cool:
