    Hello All,

    Over at VFRD I set up a group buy deal with Marc at Factory Pro for his legendary shift kits.

    I wanted one and couldn’t find them in stock anywhere and then this happened...

    Anyway, Marc has agreed to sell us his upgraded shift kit (detention arm with ceramic micro-bearing, upgraded spring, contoured shift star and gasket) for $216 (normally $270) for a 7 working day period only!

    If you do buy a kit please post here so we can keep track of numbers.

    If you’re based in the UK I’m planing a batch order to save on shipping and taxes. We can split the cost between us if you like. Just PM me with your name and contact details so I can place the bulk order.

    Marc set up this link for the discounted group buy: http://www.factorypro.com/Prod_Pages/prodh91BAJ.html

    Here is what the marketing team say about the shift kit:

    EVO Shift STAR Kit vfr800

    Myth:
    VFR's have big transmission gears and they generally shift "lazily" and clunkily, unless you use "exactly the "right" rpm and throttle
    Reality:
    A new FP MicroBearing detent arm and the final piece... A completely redesigned, empirically refined, multi angled, variable radii, repeaked and valleyed FP Shift STAR.
    This part will totally change the feel of the bike as a whole. The shifting effort is about the same - but the speed at which the gears actually engage is dramatically improved - Quicker, easier, shifting - A "twitch" on the lever and the throttle and you are in the next gear. Perfect for track use and road riding for effortless downshifts into a corner and just a "tap" to upshift without any more than a "twitch" off the throttle - That's not even mentioning that missed shifts virtually disappear.
    In town? Low rpm cruise in second - shift to third? Quicker and smoother - NO more clunky, lazy shifting in town - it's totally different and improved.
    Proven concept - Virtually all the Factory Pro Support riders in the AMA and WERA multi- Champions Vesrah Racing tested and proved the EVO-7 Stars.
    Stock shift performance that everybody used to take as a "given" will be regarded as "slow and lazy" after riding a bike with this kit -
    Kit includes a new detent arm with a low friction microbearing roller and the NEW Factory Pro EVO Detent Star.
    Make shifting MUCH quicker and virtually eliminate missed shifts.
    Marc


    Happy shifting everyone!

    Best,

    Stray
