[QUOTE="duggram, post: 412924, member: 14448"] Thanks for all the replies. This is a great list. Bluesman, I hear what you're saying. After the problem of sticking occurred a couple of times I became very attentive to how I was shifting. I think I'm doing it right (foot off, etc.). I still ride my Sportster and don't have the same problem. Also before buying the new style bike I upgraded my footwear to a pair of SIDI riding boots that fit tight without the big toes. After considering the possibilities I think the problem is with the bike. Kiteman, perfect description of what's happening. But it's getting easier to live with. DailyCommuter, I'm only 58 now, but when I become a lot older and physically decrepit it's good to know that we have options like paddle shifters to take care of us. Thank you, Doug [/QUOTE]
