Shifter
I used to have a T shifter but today I bought one of the leather one from a Bonne which they also used in GPs. Is there a longer shift boot with these ones? Mines seems too short. How hard is it to change out the boot if it is longer?

I went with a Leather 2000 shifter in the Zilla and made my own shift boot out of an old leather jacket.
I've gone to a rubber 2000 SE shifter in the SLE, but haven't made a boot for it yet.
I've got an old post around here somewhere on all the shifter types with pics, and another topic on the home-made boot.

Mine has a Cobra head too, boot is definitely shorter (or shaft is longer). I have a nice leather jacket (well, it used to be nice before I stood in the rain with it on for 3 hours). I'll be making a boot for it soon. Though I'd like myself a 2000+ Bonneville shifter **** instead.
EDIT: Yeah Bill I remember your post about it. I've been looking for a 2000+ leather shifter for a while.
