Bonnie heal-toe shifter

Has anyone come across or have any info about a heel-toe shifter for an 07 Bonnie. Because of back surgery and nerve damage in left foot a lot of up shifting in city traffic just sends my foot numb.
If no info I guess a trip to the boneyard and some fabrication may be in order.

Thumbs up Heel toe

Yeah I havent seen a special H/T shift for a Bonne, but there are a lot of bikes that have them. Its a little project to find one that works. I am sure you will find one one out there that will work. If not- It shouldnt be too much $$ to have one fabricated? I have many skeletal issues- but none (yet ) that require a H/T shift. Good luck & enjoy the ride no matter what!!!

Captdon,
Thanks for the response. Looks like I stumped the panel on this one. Luckily I work in a manufacturing plant with some great fabricators. If I can get a used stock shifter I'm sure we can design and weld something up with a little "tinkering". Would be great to find one already fitted for a bonnie though.
This getting old crap ain't for wimps!!!
