typhoon1911 Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Hi Guys... I purchased a Shift Star which was modified some time ago and never installed it. Can someone look at my attached pictures and tell me if this is OK? It kind of looks flat on the hills to me. Also, what is the the distance for the Neutral detent? Thanks, Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washburn Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Those edges look really round to me. Normal from what I have seen from the shift stars but I know I would have problems with one of them as hard and as often as I shift. Has anyone seen these??? http://cgi.ebay.com/Yamaha-Banshee-shift-s...1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okbeast Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Actually now that I look at the one Washburn put the link up to, that's what mine looks like. Not ever hill is rounded off, looks like you got a custom one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mike NY Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Is that shift star modification strictly for drag racing or can it be used for all around riding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brugal Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 (edited) The pics Ive seen of a shift star, have always been the modified ones that look sharper,Wow thats a big difference.Those are really round.Nice pics. :thumbsup: Edited March 12, 2007 by brugal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blowit Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 The pics Ive seen of a shift star, have always been the modified ones that look sharper,Wow thats a big difference.Those are really round.Nice pics. :thumbsup: IN reference to our shift star modification that you saw on ebay, many elements are considered when modifying OEM parts. We designed a unique cut in the stars to help the banshees shift as easy as possible. Our modified shift stars are a good addition for any banshee, trails, drag racing, general rec. riding. One thing to remember is these parts are face hardened from the OEM and must be re-treated after cutting to minimize wear on the part. The compound radius works on the same principles as the compound hunting bow. Brandon Mull Engineering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I installed a shift pro a while back and it worked great with my stock star. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
