Why RaceTorx Gear Shift Supports Are Essential?
Enhanced Gear Shifting Precision:
The RaceTorx Gear Shift Supports are designed to provide unparalleled precision in gear shifting. By reducing play and minimizing unnecessary movement in the gear shift mechanism, these supports ensure that each shift is smooth, crisp, and accurate and in turn reduces those frustrating mis-shifts and eliminates those pesky false neutrals. This enhancement in precision not only improves the overall riding experience but also contributes to the longevity of the gearbox.
Our Gear Shift Supports can also be used in conjunction with quick shifters for a more responsive gear change giving you greater control over your bike and its performance.
Minimized Wear and Tear:
Excessive play in the gear shift mechanism can lead to accelerated wear and tear. The RaceTorx Gear Shift Supports act as a safeguard, minimizing stress on critical components and prolonging the lifespan of your motorcycle’s transmission. This is achieved by using only the best materials in production. The gear shifts use a needle bearing or phosphorus bronze bush which reduces rotational resistance as well as the outer case being made from billet aluminium. This translates to long-term cost savings and a more reliable ride.
The Gear Shifts also give added protection for your transmission in the event of a crash by protecting the shaft.
Optimal Performance in Demanding Conditions:
For riders who love to push the limits and tackle challenging terrains, the RaceTorx Gear Shift Supports are a crucial addition. They provide stability and consistency in gear shifts, ensuring optimal performance even in demanding riding conditions. Whether you’re navigating tight corners or accelerating on open roads, these supports enhance your control and confidence when riding.
By moving the fulcrum closer to the gear lever, the kinetic energy is altered to achieve less effort and better action. You can have total confidence in your shifts to reduce false neutrals and mis-shifts helping you to gain confidence in your machine and move quickly through the gears to reach maximum performance.
A must have for any true biker.

Overland Rider – 13.01.23
‘A sunny day actually arrived on the Isle of Wight today, so out I went with the bike again. This time I managed a longer ride, passing through several towns (20-30mph limit) that required changing through the lower gears regularly, as well as long, winding country roads limited to 60mph. Once again the gear shift felt a tad more precise than before the RT installation. Every change was smooth as you like and 2nd to 3rd didn’t miss a beat once. It’s bizarre but this part definitely makes a difference. It’s not a huge difference and many won’t feel it worth the cost but to those who just want everything to function as well as it possibly can, this might well be quickly on their radar.’

SirJag – Ducati Forum 2023
‘Yes sir Seth! 10/10 would do again. Have not had a missed shift or false neutral since the upgrade. Feels much more like a bolt action rifle now.
The stock unit and rear sets were very sloppy. When I installed the CNCRacing rear sets that made the feel a lot better, and easier to track the bike with…but it wasn’t complete until the RaceTorx unit was installed. Cleaned up the remaining slop/free play completely.’
