      Makes me wonder how something so simple can make all the difference you are all describing.... Wondering how good (comparatively) mine is now, but it's so long since it was fitted, I can't recall what it was like before....

          Imo short shifters rush the gear change too much for the synchros a sympathetic but precice gear change is
          Probably best the mt75 will give do agree though mounting bushes prob make it better but I have not fitted any
          Yet may be ill have to try them

            The B&M especially, is savage on syncros if you try and change gear any faster than a granny with artritis so sort of defeats the object of having a 'quick' shift fitted

            On the plus side, they do look good though

              Bara even say they hate short shifters, knackers far more than you think.
