ELTOS Remote Gear Lever
#23
(08-04-2025, 10:43 AM)Robert Leigh Wrote: If you look at the picture of mine earlier in this thread you will see how mine overcomes this problem. My tubular support system does require some welding, but it is only fixed to the gearbox.

I did have a look at it, but I can't decipher it from the pic. The description of it makes it somewhat less opaque though.
I'm kind of favouring the possibility of grinding down the detent, but that will mean taking out the gearbox at some point, which I currently don't have any intention of doing!

This may provide a temporary solution, thanks.

Just curious why is there a big notch in the Eltos at the start of the tube ?

There was a 4 speed Eltos too.

The notch is for the speedo cable

Yes, here's a 4-speed Eltos remote. (Not my pic)
