I know a couple of guys that have had some problems trying to keep those adjusted correctly. They work great they tell me but require constant adjusting to keep working. Is this a fact or not?

I didn't think Coby would have some rigged up lookin POS like that on his bike. Coby is a great welder and fabricator I would expect something alot nicer and cleaner looking from him than that. That is some kit that get's sold to people that can't fabricate shit and needs it all to just bolt on.

scroll down till you see a green 12; that was my heap 5 years ago

The PS3 takes a lil finesse to set up, but once done correctly it does NOT need to be adjusted. Mine has worked great for 5 years.

You're the only one I head of with that much luck out of the thing. MAybe you the only one I've heard of that is smarter than the shifter Granted I have limited exposure to this particular shifter. I have heard many stories of them NOT working right, but that could be because of many reasons as we all know. It's good to hear someone say they were able to set it and forget it.
