Just picked this up NOS - haven't tested it yet. Looks pretty cool though.

Hey, that is pretty cool. I've been wondering if someone made a "heel" shifter to fit my 78 750K8. Where did you pick it up?

Some seller on eBay had them listed NOS - I paid $10 each.

  I had the same pressure gauge on my first bike, a little big but solid and no waver in the needle.  Are ya gonna put some highway pegs on to go with the heel/toe shifter ?;D
Give me..a frame to build a bike on, and my imagination will build upon that frame

Ha! One thing I've learned in my short time here: Scondon is a total smartass - but I must confess - I love it! You bastard!

Actually - my bike is gonna be so pimp, not only will it have highway bars, but I plan to mount some of the old school curb feelers so I don't scratch my spoke wheels.

Oh yeah... these were some old NOS parts from a dealership - I bought the last two from him.

Honda sold a few different VDO gauges for early/mid 80s bikes, including an altimeter!  They were accessory items for Interstates, Aspencades, and the Hondaline Sabre fairing.
Go metric, every inch of the way!

Actually - it's not going on the bike. I bought it to resell - some people like gadgetity stuff, so I'm adding it to my collection of Maxwell Smart CB parts. Really.

So what do you want for one of the "Heel/Toe" shifters?
