How do chaps?

After a bit of info please. The one's of you with forge adjustable quick-shifts could you please let me know what settings your running in both axis's, I'm a bit unsure of how aggressive to run it but any info opinions/experience would be much obliged.

Luke.

i only have the front to back shifter, and it's set about 70% shorter than normal, feels like the box can't keep up if i set it higher than that  :happy2:

Over the top mod list ;o)

I bought both from a user on here and they were both set to max. Didn't see any reason to change them and regretted it initially as the throw pattern is very condensed and took quite a bit of getting used to (including setting off in reverse on more than one occasion  :ashamed:)

However............

Once you get used to it - its awesome! slightly notchier which can be expected but a real good mod, I hardly need to move my hand to change gear now and I really like it.

Whatever settings you use give your muscle memory a week or so to adjust

Cheers chaps. Played around with it today and come to a rough setting of about 90% front to back and about 40/50% side to side.

Made a massive school boy error of adjusting the gear shift with the spring clips released so I've spent the last hour trying to get that aligned back up. guess it's just a case of tweaking it very finely to get it set right again.
