i had never even heard of "missing a gear/shift" untill i got my GT, and would miss 3rd. and of course....it would only happen at the worse times....racing. embarassing. got the steeda tri-ax, and have been able to nail all gears every since.

had that problem with the 3rd gear too before and I installed the MGW Shifter: works like a charm and I never miss ANY gear now.

EDIT: I havn't tested out the tri-ax shifter or Pro 5.0 but I recommend the MGW to anyone. It works really nicely and the service I had from them was great.

I would rather hear nails on a chalkboard instead of hearing the teeth on the tranny grinding when you dont put it in gear all the way and let off the clutch.

Everytime I did it, it sent shivers down my spine.

Lets hope the MGW fixes that, its on, but its still !@#$%ing snowing.

u want MGW shifter it is the best shifter out there and has an adjustable arm to suit anyones needs. I love mine and never miss 3rd. No more row boat action from 1st to 2nd gear or any gear for that matter.
