A new stock shifter is still the best.

I had a super shifter and it was terrible. I DO NOT recommend a Super Shifter. Mine was made by Empi, the Jamar ones might work better. Even if it shifted better, it was difficult to get into reverse with one hand.

X2, if your speed shifting or just trail riding mine does great , once you get used to the
Tight shift pattern you should like a whole lot , but the stock shifter is more forgiven than any of the rest I suppose !

Its hard to beat stock for the money . I have a drag fast and like it . My wifes buggy has a empi shifter in it and I had rather reach back and shift it with vise grips as run a empi shifter . I got to replace hers !
