【G-Craft】Shift Guide (Gashiri-kun) Review
A little bit of Shift action with Snap.
I'm using it for my wife GROM.
Looking at other people's reviews, is it a preexisting condition of GROM that makes it difficult to get into Neutral? I bought it because I thought it would work for
The accuracy and appearance of the parts is perfect.
As far as installation is concerned, it is challenging.
First of all, you need to remove the OEM Shift lever, and to do so, you need to remove the footpegs (= pivot shaft).
Removing this will make the installation process easier, but after this process, the Swing Armetc. will be installed in a Large size.
I loosened the Screw until before the pivot shaft slipped out and made the space where I can work on the removal of the Shift lever by rotating the footpeg around the shaft.
This method requires some work to install the Shift guide and Shift lever, but if you think about the removal of the work around the rear, you can reduce the work time to a large width.
Try it at your own risk.
After installing it, the feeling changes from a squishy feeling to a little snappy fee ring.
It's not a race that uses a lot of high rpm range, but in daily use, shift mistakes, etc. rarely happen, so it may be just a pleasant feeling of Parts.
There was little change in the difficulty of getting into Neutral.
I would have been happy to see a few more changes for the price.

I am more then satisfied with the positive and direct feel now felt when changing through the gears
About quality and texture - The shift guide from G-Craft uses a sealed bearing unit and is made from billet aluminum with detailed machining and a silver anodized surface finish, the quality from the overall fit and finish is perfect. About the feeling of use - I was unimpressed with the overall feel of the original setup for the gear shifting as it felt vague. The transformation with the simple addition of this shift guide is amazing and I am more then satisfied with the positive and direct feel now felt when changing through the gears. Products to buy together - A product to purchase that will also ad in improved gear shifting is an adjustable shift rod that will allow you to perfectly position the gear lever to your desired position using the rest of the original rearsets. Difficulty of installation - The installation of the shift guide is a intermediate task that took 1 hour to complete. Some mechanical aptitude and the use of basic hand tools is what is required to secure the shift guide over the shifter shaft to the engine case. Cost performance and comparison with other products - I find the cost of all the products G-Craft sell to be on par when compared to what most other companies sell their products for but this is not the case with the shift guide as there are quite a few cheaper options available here on Webike. About shipping and packaging - With there being no cost difference between sea freight and EMS for the shift guide, I chose EMS for an earlier arrival date. The part was extremely well protected while being covered in bubble wrap and surrounded with air pillows in a sturdy cardboard box. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing - Webike Japan is the first place I look to for all my motorcycle needs. From service parts to performance products and even motorcycle gear and apparel, Webike always seem to satisfy my needs in regards to availability and pricing. View detail
Certainly chunky.
Replaced with KITACO Shift link.
Shift's difficulty in getting in has been reduced and it is now firmly in place.
Installation is less difficult, but the location is a bit of a hassle.

Installed 5 speed assembly.
I have been having a bad shifting feeling especially in N⇔1st gear since I installed 5th gear, so I decided to install Firmly which had a good reputation on the Net.
Shift feel has been improved, but it is still not perfect. Is this the limit?
The GCraft logo is also included, giving it a very personal feel.

Installed on a 2007 HA02
The jittery feeling during downshift is reduced and comfortable shift change is now possible.
I am glad I installed it.
Installation was very easy.
