I'm in the process currently of revamping my gear linkage and gear shifter to hopefully make it like new again. I've actually got now two sets of linkage, shifter and housing and it's made me wonder what's involved in the short shift kit?! Is it purely lengthening the linkage by an inch or two so that the actual throw of the shifter is less?! If so, it should be possibly for me to hack up the worst of the two linkages and add an extra bit in?! Has anyone got the short shift kit or can confirm what's actually done/involved in making this work?!

Cheers,

Mark
