[QUOTE="meosborn, post: 101713, member: 19"] Can't remember exactly which way the new arm was mounted but it really wasn't too big of a deal (not trying to be dismissive) I just mounted it whatever way made it able to make the full swing without causing the shift rod or anything else to hit anything solid. From the look of the picture you have some adjustment that needs to be made since the groove on the shift pedal is too high in relation to the bumps on the frame (technical enough for you?) I didn't make any adjustments to the shift rod and instead just held the shift pedal in the right position as I pushed the shift arm onto the shaft. There are plenty of teeth on that rod to allow fine tuning that way. Hope this is helpful. I will check back tomorrow after I've had a chance to look at my FJR. If I have anything more to add then I will. Good luck. Mark P.S. Too bad you didn't have this problem about 7 days ago. I just move from San Diego to Everett, WA last week. Could have ridden over to give you a first hand look. [/QUOTE]
