Thread: Foot gear shifter question : should it be all the way on the shaft???

I took my foot shifter of for readjustment and when puting it back on, i am not sure if it supposed to go all the way on to the shaft or if the screw on the shifter lines up with the groove on the shaft coming out of the engine.?? when it lines up with the slot on the shaft it is not all the way on. when it is all the way on the screw wont go through to the laces on the other side,, photo is attached of how it looks when the screw goes through. is this right or wrong.. any help would be great..

Just put it on till the bolt lines up with the slot on the shaft. Mine shifter lever hangs over the end on mine too.

I think mine hangs over, too. As long as the set-bolt goes into the groove it won't fall off.

Mine seems to not hang over. As long as the bolt is in the groove theres not much adjustment.

All of mine hang over, when the bolt lines up with the groove on the shaft.
