About one more week. (really) It will be worth the wait!

Do the shifter cable bushings require grease/lube around the rotating ball or just around the rubber part? Wondering cuz i'm still get a snag/stutter between some of the gears and want to see if that'll help.

Looks like the short throw adapter is available!

Not sure when it went live, but I just ordered mines!

I thought the short shifter was going to be a whole entire new shifter assembly?

A full shifter for the 10th gens is coming ...

Acuity is pretty awesome. I sent them a message this morning about the rocker arm availability, short shifter & the zip-tie method.

Actually got a personable phone call from one of the guys during lunch. Hopefully one more week on the rocker arm and we spoke in depth about the short shifter & zip-tie method. They found this to be the best/firmest way of holding the shift cables. Discussed other designs but they felt after testing the zip-ties did the best and it's pretty much free. They said they discussed of doing a part but the zip-ties held the best.

Not the biggest fan of these style either & I'd love to wait for a full shifter as well. Their full shifters look amazing.

However, I'd just like to get this done soon and the previous year models are all metal(which is awesome, broke a few plastic ones before) and about $400+ if it's anything to go off of.
They do appear to come with the rocker arm upgrade, centering spring, & base bushings. So another $70 for the shift cable bushings so $470-$500 without a shift knob or boot adapter for the "full" shifter setup.

I'm was able to get the the shift cable bushings, shifter base bushings, centering spring, rocker arm, short shifter, & throttle pedal assembly for $357 or $260 for the "full" shifter kit using the stock shifter assembly.

Not sure if it's worth the wait? I was thinking of grabbing the entire buddy club short shifter(plastic) and adding the Acuity parts to it.

I can't decide whether to sell off the stuff I have(minus shift cable bushings) and just wait or grab the rocker & short shifter adapter.

Unless ACUITY has advised you otherwise, I would not assume that ACUITY's parts for the OEM shifter fit the Buddy Club shifter. I know in the past they've had issues with Buddy Club changing the design up.

Yep, I never assume. Always researching.

I'm not sure if this has been asked before, but I have acuity everything waiting to install them, but I forgot to order the base bushings. I however still have my old 9th gen si base bushings from when i got there short shifter kit. Will the 9th gen base bushings work on my 10th gen? I've yet to get in there and look, any help is appreciated.
