Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter

I bought the Steeda Tri-Ax shifter to replace the stock shifter.  The Tri-Ax is a short throw shifter with a strong offset spring mechanism to line up the shifter lever with the third/fourth position.  This eliminates missing third that is all to common with the stock shifter.  The shifter housing and lever are very well manufactured.  The housing is made of billet T-6 aluminum.  The Tri-Ax comes with a choice of an aluminum or steel shift handle.  While the aluminum handle is lighter, it also transfers heat, unlike the steel handle.  There have been reports of the aluminum handle breaking as well. The installation instructions are very detailed, as are all instructions that come with Steeda products.  The actual installation was fairly easy and can be done by anyone with mechanical know-how. Once the shifter was installed, it was time for a test drive.  The shifter was a major improvement over the stock shifter.  The shifts were crisp and short.  It's almost impossible to miss third gear now.  The overall feeling is notchy and makes shifting a lot more fun.  Most aftermarket shifters create more noise and while the Tri-Ax is no different, the noise is minimal.  If there are any negatives, I'd have to say it would be the shift into 5th gear.  It's more difficult, but fortunately, 5th isn't a racing gear.
