2. Loosen the mounting screw in the mirror
housing, and remove the mirror from the end of
the handlebar (Figure 2).
3. Remove the handlebar grip from the left
end of the handlebar. Do not lose the shim
between the grip and the shifter housing.
4. Loosen the shifter clamp bolt, and slide the
shifter housing from the handlebar (Figure 3).
Guide the shifter cable around the headlight as
you remove the shifter housing.
5. If you are not servicing the shifter or the
cable, lay the shifter over the top tube. Secure
it in place so it will remain out of the way. Do
not severely bend or kink the cable.
Installation
1. Slide the shifter housing onto the left end of
the handlebar (Figure 3).
2. Gently route the shifter cable over and
behind the headlight as you slide the shifter
housing against the brake-lever body.
