Honda ST1300 heel toe shifter?

[alcalder1]

I have a 2006 Honda ST1300 and would really like to change the shifter from a Toe shifter to a Toe/heel shifter.

Does anyone know if this may be accomplished?

That would require a floorboard, wouldn’t it? As far as I know, it’s not a thing on these bikes.

There is a member here some time back that had a need for a heel-toe shifter. Seems that the marketplace had no such product so a welding shop modified his to fit his need. That is where I would go.

Several of the small Japanese bikes of the 1960's had heel/toe shifters, largest was the 305cc Honda CA77. No floorboards. Think the HD early Sportster had one also.
If you really want one, take a look at the CA77 shifter, they are available from time to time on Ebay. Maybe that could be adapted or used as a model for someone with some welding expertise.

The current Honda ct125 trail cub has one, perhaps it could be modified?

Royal Enfield puts these shifters on some of their new models.

I have a picture but can't seem to post it. The shift lever rotated on a modified bolt just above and ahead of the left foot peg.

My 1990's Honda Shadow 1100 cruiser
came with a heel toe shifter and no floorboards only foot pegs I eventually got used to it but I prefer conventional toe shifting only because sometimes when I would slide my boot around on the peg I would accidentally kick the back side of the lever down and force it to upshift when I wasn't intending to.

The heel / toe shifter is pretty cool, I still think I'll never sell this bike; for those and it's many other attributes
