bought one of those "ergonomic gear lever thingos" from Hemisphere (couldn't a decent photo), big difference being able to use the toe, heel part is a bit smaller than standard which saves me having to twist my (once) broken ankle - very fine splines so a bit of filing to reduce the paint/powder coat, nothing dramatic, the blokes overseas with RH chairs are laughing, this old body didn't like hanging over the seat trying to work (getting down was ok, getting up is another thing) Here ya go (edit by admin) 👍😇 I find the greatest mod is to remove the kick start lever. I also only change up by pushing down on the rear of the lever with my toes. lee

Dave,
Tried that when Lee suggested it ages ago. However on the 2020 model it's a bugger of a job. Lever doesn't move down far enough to get the bolt out. Rubber stops needed to come off the frame and kick start lever to even look like enough. By that time my back had cried enough and I left well enough alone. Using toes as Lee suggested worked for me. I looked at that lever but at the time but the exchange rate took it to nearly $300au. Bit more reasonable now.
Cheers
Deano
