orbie Posted April 8, 2012 #1 Posted April 8, 2012 Hi all Interesting thing happened today....Wife and are out for a nice Easter ride, about 45 miles or so from home, when I go to downshift while approaching a light and wa-la, my shifter is laying on my floorboard. I pull into a wide spot (the wife follows me in on her Shadow) and guess what? the machine screw (that holds the heel toe in place is somewhere on Rt 33. I put the shifter back on and all is good ( I hold it in place with my foot after each shift). Now what I can use is the exploded diagram of the shifter for a 2005 RSV midnight. Thanks inadvance.

orbie Posted April 8, 2012 Author #3 Posted April 8, 2012 Got it. Thanks for the quick reply.............
OutKast Posted April 8, 2012 #4 Posted April 8, 2012 you can steal the foward bolt out of the sidecover under the driver seat. It is only there for looks, does not hold the sidecover on, fits the sshifter perfect. Use locktite. I never have put one back in the sidecover
PGunn Posted April 9, 2012 #5 Posted April 9, 2012 you can steal the foward bolt out of the sidecover under the driver seat. It is only there for looks, does not hold the sidecover on, fits the sshifter perfect. Use locktite. I never have put one back in the sidecover Nice to know... Thanks
orbie Posted April 9, 2012 Author #6 Posted April 9, 2012 Thanks again, I grabbed the diagram and now I'll match the bolt from the side cover.
eds Posted April 9, 2012 #7 Posted April 9, 2012 Just keep a supply of 6, 8 and 10MM bolts on the bike. That will cover about any bolts that fall off.
