EVO Detent Star Kit - Improved indexing.
SHFT-EVO-S59-KT $199.95

It's everything that I ever wanted to do to a shift mechanism
-
Slightly stronger detent spring - a new MicroBearing detent arm
and the final piece... A completely redesigned, empirically refined,
multi angled, variable radii, repeaked and valleyed:
SFV Shift STAR
(it's about 1/4" different from stock)
Much better neutral finding and shift precision.
EVO Shift STAR Kit
This part will totally change the
feel of the bike. 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.
It is a significant improvement over the "05"
and later shift star.
In town? Low rpm cruise in second - shift to third? So quick and smooth
that it will surprise and amaze - NO more clunky, lazy shifting in town
- As I said - 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 in 2003.
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,
a performance shift spring and the NEW Factory Pro EVO Detent Star.
Make shifting MUCH quicker and virtually eliminate missed shifts.
It is a significant improvement over the "05"
and later shift star.

I received the parts yesterday, and got them
installed. The shifting on this bike is monumentally
improved. More positive engagement, not vague
feeling anymore like it was. I have 10 bikes, and
this was the only o e I had shift problems with. I
am a soft shifter. I think my problems might be
over. Shift star, detent roller with heavier spring,
and the adjustable shift stud are a fantastic
improvement. Well worth the wait!!!!

Hey, I just had the shift star
installed at Factory Pro. I let Marc talk me into it after he heard
me lamenting about false neutrals and how "ratchity" I thought the
shifter was on my Glee. Yes, I keep the linkage clean and lubed but
I've never been happy with it. Well, I must tell you, the Factory
Pro shift star mod works. I wear work boots during the week and
touring boots on the weekend so I was always adjusting my shift
lever. Now I leave it in the "touring" position and all is good. The
shifting is now smooth and concise no matter which position the
shift lever is in. Tick, tick, tick go the shifts. Thanx Marc

Adjustable Center Shift Stud, DL/SV650
$24.95
(and possibly others that use 8x12.5mm threaded "fixed"
stud)
November 2006
I got the new star and stud. Put it in and adjusted
it all up. Now everything works great, great feel just like I
would expect. I might just have to get one for my new SV1000 superbike
race project!

If the shift shaft fingers aren't centered on the shift shaft, Factory
Pro has the fix.
(see bottom of page for tech)
It's a
special adjustable offset "centering"
stud, adjustable by almost 1mm. For visual example, the difference in
the below example was only .31mm/.024"!
More mature (lol!) experienced mechanics will recall when almost all
transmissions were equipped with a part like this. That allowed the
engine builder to set the shift shaft to exactly in the center for the
best possible shift performance. That part, along with shimming and
clearancing gear spacing, is what "blueprinting" a transmission is all
about.
Install the stud with enough threads exposed for the
locknut.
Turn stud till shift shaft "fingers" are centered on detent STAR pins.
Tighten down the locknut.
Recheck indexing.
CHECK!!! For things that may interfere with the taller
stud!!
This fits all the SV and DL 650's, (and probably the
1000's) at least up to 06 and you may find other applications that it
could be used in.
Sigh..... In the "old days", a good mechanic would
center everything, grind special shims, clearance and reshim gears on
the shafts, move gears closer to get quicker gear engagement and reprofile
and polish shift star pins and ramps for the slickest working trans.......
Luckily, it's not 100% mandatory to do all that anymore, but - when
it's all done - you'll get the slickest shifting transmission, ever.
I still do all that as a project, though - I kind alike doing it in
the evenings and weekends.

Requires pulling the clutch assembly
to install (no case splitting required), so it's perfect to install
when installing a Shift STAR.

Ignition Advance Kit
Use this kit to advance the ignition timing 4 degrees
for more power at part throttle and at full throttle.
Install the key with offset to the LEFT to advance the timing!
For easiest, quickest install - we suggest that you have access to an
air or electric impact impact wrench -
That makes it simple to remove the rotor bolt --
Kit includes special 4mm offset woodruff key AND Factory Pro's own heat
treated, tool steel, plated rotor puller.

Hi-
I notice you have an advancer for the '03-'06 SV650. Will it fit the
Suzuki DL650 VStrom? From what I understand the engine is very similar.
I put one of your advancers on an '01 SV650 and loved the results. If
the advancer works on the VStrom, can I expect similar results?
Thanks, Kurt Larson
yes.
